Dear ISACA Auckland Chapter Members,
The ISACA Auckland Chapter is pleased to announce our next lunchtime in-person event, to be held in the lunchtime from 12:00 PM to 02:00 PM NZST on Tuesday, August 19th, 2025. 1CPE is available.
Topic:
Quantum Computing and Quantum Safety
SHORT DESCRIPTION
The rise of Quantum Computing has sparked quite a bit of interest in the IT community as it offers a range of exciting opportunities to solve complex computational problems. At the same time, we have had to recognize that it poses significant threats to existing infrastructure security and triggers a need to act. This talk will cover the following aspects:
- What is Quantum Computing and how does it differ from Conventional Computing?
- What is the risk posed by a rise of Quantum Computing? When and how do we need to react?
- What are the relevant standards to look out for and how to engage with vendors?
- What about relevant legislation and regulation, in New Zealand, Australia, the EU and UK?
The talk will conclude with Questions and Answers from the audience.
Joerg Micheel is a Technology and Security consultant with a little over three decades of experience in managing complex technology and infrastructure. During the past four years his specific focus has been on cloud infrastructure and cloud security and the role that Digital Identity plays in securing modern cloud deployments. He is presently working towards his certifications for ISO 19011, 27001 and 42001.
Joerg is an active member and speaker with ISACA Auckland and Wellington, ISC2 and NZITF. In his talks he is aiming to make the complex simple and provide for a lasting insight that influences executive decision making in New Zealand.
