    Description:\n\n   Format-preserving encryption is widely deployed and 
 widely\n   misunderstood. It appears in PCI environments\, GDPR compliance
 \n   architectures\, banking systems\, payment platforms\, and legacy\n   
 applications where changing the data format is not an option.\n   Unfortun
 ately\, many production uses of FPE get the important details\n   wrong.\n
 \n   This talk is a practical field guide to FPE.\n\n   We will walk throu
 gh NIST FF1 and FF3-1 from the perspective of\n   someone building or revi
 ewing a real system. The focus is not on\n   cryptographic theory for its 
 own sake\, but on the decisions that\n   matter in production: choosing th
 e radix\, understanding domain-size\n   limits\, using tweaks correctly\, 
 and recognizing when the security\n   margin is thinner than it looks. We 
 will also talk about the key\n   management problem that most FPE librarie
 s leave unresolved.\n\n   Finally\, we will separate good use cases from b
 ad ones. FPE can be the\n   right tool for structured sensitive data\, leg
 acy systems\, and\n   format-constrained workflows. It can also be the wro
 ng tool\,\n   especially when small domains\, poor key separation\, missin
 g tweaks\, or\n   assumptions borrowed from tokenization creep into the de
 sign.\n\n   SpeakerBio:  Leslie Gutschow\n\n   Principal engineer and foun
 der of Horizon Digital Engineering. Named\n   inventor on two US patents c
 overing format-preserving encryption and\n   string protection techniques 
 (OpenText/Micro Focus). Former Principal\n   Architect and Professional Se
 rvices at Micro Focus/Voltage Security (7\n   years) — led enterprise FP
 E deployments and integrations across\n   financial services\, healthcare\
 , and retail. Previously: Naval Research\n   Lab\, Boeing. Currently resea
 rching memory-safe OS infrastructure.\n\n   '\n\n   1. #LVCCW_Level1_Hall3
