Privacy and Sovereignty in a Post Quantum Open World

Each month it seems we are made aware of a break in security. Some report of a data base of identity information that is reported as captured by an entity of some type. Lists of passwords, ID numbers, bank account information, credit card information. And these are only the ones we hear about, since many of these break-ins are not reported, or kept quiet.

Often we hope that the data is encrypted, but as we all know quantum computers are coming quickly and quantum computers can take present-day encrypted data even with the highest key lengths and break them in minutes which would have taken conventional high performance computers centuries to break.

Another threat comes from the sovereignty of your system and data. While many cloud companies have put additional servers in various countries (even yours) the companies that generate that software (often closed source) are headquartered in the United States and therefore under US laws like the Patriot Act.

You want a system that is made with Open Source, which allows you to run it on standard equipment that you can inspect, in the country that you want to run it.

A system that puts security first. This talk will detail such a system.
