Because we believe in sharing information for the greater good with the PKI community, we started AET Security Topics.
On a regular basis, we will share videos on our socials, about the topics that matter. For example, Quantum Computing, Digital Signatures, Security Enclaves and so on. Technical topics explained easily, by our experts including Phil Zimmermann.
Phil Zimmermann, Distinguished Engineer at Advanced Encryption Technology (AET) Europe B.V., recently created AET Security Topics, an initiative to share AET’s and Phil’s knowledge on exciting high-tech security topics.
