DESCRIPTION:   'Title: Sold Out - Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) for Hacke

 n   Description:\n\n   Secure communications are not a luxury — they
  are a foundational\n   requirement for human dignity in the digital age. 
 Our most meaningful\n   conversations\, transactions\, and decisions deman
 d end-to-end\n   encryption\, strong authentication\, and verifiable integ
 rity. The\n   notion that "only those with something to hide need strong c
 rypto" is\n   not merely lazy\; it is dangerously shortsighted. Privacy is
  the space\n   where autonomy\, intimacy\, and authentic human experience 
 thrive. When\n   that space is violated\, the damage ripples far beyond th
 e individual.\n\n   For decades\, classical public-key cryptography has qu
 ietly protected\n   everything from online banking to private messaging. T
 hat era is\n   ending. Quantum computers are advancing rapidly\, and the b
 reak of\n   today's asymmetric algorithms — often called the Quantum
 \n   Apocalypse — is no longer a question of if\, but when. The wind
 ow\n   to prepare is narrowing. Migration must begin now.\n\n   In this wo
 rkshop\, you'll implement PQC algorithms from the NSA's CNSA\n   Suite 2.0
 . You'll use C++\, OpenSSL and Linux to demonstrate the secure\n   usage o
 f ML-KEM\, ML-DSA\, AES-256\, and SHA-512. You'll leave with\n   clean\, r
 eusable code\, deep implementation insight\, and the practical\n   skills 
 needed to integrate PQC into real-world systems.\n\n   We might not all ha
 ve something to hide\, but we all have something\n   worth protecting.\n\n
    SpeakerBio:  Eric "Eijah" Anderson\n\n   Eijah is the founder of Code S
 iren\, LLC and has 25+ years of\n   experience in software development. He
  is the creator of Polynom\, the\n   world's first CNSA Suite 2.0 PQC coll
 aboration app and the author of\n   multiple FIPS 140-3 modules. He is als
 o the developer of Demonsaw\, an\n   encrypted communications platform tha
 t allows you to share information\n   without fear of data collection or s
 urveillance. Before that Eijah was\n   a Lead Programmer at Rockstar Games
  where he created Grand Theft Auto\n   V and Red Dead Redemption 2. In 200
 7\, Eijah hacked multiple\n   implementations of the Advanced Access Conte
 nt System (AACS) protocol\n   and released the first Blu-ray device keys u
 nder the pseudonym\, ATARI\n   Vampire. He has been a faculty member at mu
 ltiple colleges\, has spoken\n   at DEF CON and other security conferences
 \, and holds a master's degree\n   in Computer Science. Eijah is an active
  member of the hacking\n   community and is an avid proponent of Internet 
 freedom.\n\n   Links:\n       Registration (July 14\, 2026\, Noon US Pacif
