Title of the Talk :
Securing the Future: Key Management Strategies for Multi-Cloud, Zero Trust, and Post-Quantum World

Abstract of the Talk:
Key management systems form the backbone of modern cryptographic security, enabling organizations to generate, distribute, rotate, and retire keys at scale with reliability and compliance. This session explores the fundamental principles of key management, common architectures, and how these systems safeguard data across cloud and on‑premise environments. We will examine challenges such as lifecycle automation, multi‑cloud interoperability, and integration with hardware security modules, as well as emerging considerations driven by post‑quantum cryptography and zero trust models. By the end of this session, participants will understand not only the critical role of key management in protecting sensitive information but also practical strategies to design or enhance systems that can meet the evolving demands of digital infrastructure.
