Preparing for Q‑Day: The Next Era of SSL/TLS Security

Webinar Description

Quantum computing is accelerating faster than expected, and its impact on today’s encryption standards is impossible to ignore. Q‑Day, the moment quantum machines can break current cryptography, may still be years away, but the transition to quantum‑safe security has already begun. 

In this fast‑paced 45‑minute session, we’ll break down what Q‑Day really means, why SSL/TLS certificates are changing, and how organisations can prepare for the shift to post‑quantum cryptography without disruption. Whether you manage infrastructure, lead security strategy, or want to understand the future of digital trust, this webinar will give you the clarity and direction you need.

We are excited to welcome special guest speaker, Founder and Chair of the Board, Alistair Murray, from Trustify

Top Takeaways

  • What Q‑Day Actually Is and Why It Matters NowUnderstand the real quantum threat timeline and why preparation must start long before quantum computers reach full capability. 

  • How Quantum Computing Breaks Today’s SSL/TLSA clear explanation of Shor’s algorithm, public‑key vulnerabilities, and the risks of “harvest now, decrypt later.” 

  • The New Post‑Quantum Algorithms You’ll Soon Be Using – Get up to speed on NIST’s PQC standards (Kyber, Dilithium, and more) and how hybrid certificates will support a smooth transition. 

  • Why SSL/TLS Certificate Lifetimes Are ShrinkingLearn how the move from 398‑day certificates to 200, 100, and eventually 47 days will reshape operational workflows and why automation becomes essential. 

  • A Practical Roadmap to Prepare Your OrganisationActionable steps to inventory cryptography, modernise certificate management, and get ready for a quantum‑safe future. 

Our Guest Speaker

Alistair Murray is a PKI and SSL/TLS specialist with deep technical roots in digital certificate infrastructure. Recognising the growing complexity and risk that organisations face in managing their certificate estates – and the accelerating pressure brought by shrinking certificate validity windows – Alistair founded Trustify to solve a problem most businesses don't see coming until it's too late. Under his leadership, Trustify has developed a purpose-built platform to give organisations full visibility, control, and automation across their SSL/TLS certificate lifecycle. With the CA/Browser Forum's validity reduction roadmap moving certificates toward 47-day lifespans, Alistair has positioned Trustify at the forefront of a market shift that demands automation, not spreadsheets. His focus remains on helping enterprises, MSPs, and public sector organisations stay ahead of a threat landscape that is only becoming more demanding.
