After the second video, where Phil Zimmermann explained the concept of ‘Secure Enclaves’ and how we can use them in our organisations, he now returns to the topic of Quantum Cryptography. In this third episode below he talks you through the advantages and disadvantages of ‘Quantum Key Distribution’.
In times of digital transformation, new innovations follow each other at lightning speed. For years, we saw improvement upon improvement in computers and components, and everything had to be faster and newer. More recently, attention has shifted to which technical components can contribute to a better overall solution to increase digital resilience. And authentication plays a crucial role in this. This blog explains the concept of authentication and how you can implement it securely in your organisation.
In this second video, Phil Zimmermann explains the concept of ‘Secure Enclaves’ and how we can use them in our business.

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.
Philip R. Zimmermann is the creator of Pretty Good Privacy (PGP), is one of the Top 50 Tech Visionaries of the last 50 years (PC World) and is inducted into the Internet’s Society’s Internet Hall of Fame.
During this time of digital transformation, new innovations are appearing at lightning speed. For years, we’ve seen improvements in computers with manufacturers aiming for everything to be faster and faster. Now, they’re deeply engaged in a race to make quantum computers widely available. These quantum computers will outstrip the performance of existing supercomputers, but also introduce threats to people and businesses.
Some of the data protection and digital ID laws we have in Europe have now come into play in Brazil. Our colleague, Colin van den Heuvel, was recently interviewed about the impact and implications of these laws by Brazilian website CryptoID.
