The People Actually Responsible for PQC Migration, In One Room
No slides. No vendor demos. A structured conversation with CISOs, Federal CIOs, and infrastructure architects on crypto agility, algorithm governance, and what a realistic PQC migration timeline actually looks like in production.
Attendance is limited and vetted. Apply for your spot.
Strategic Guidance
Real-world perspectives on cryptographic risk, algorithm governance, hybrid migration, and PQC readiness.
Peer-Level Insights
Candid discussion with leaders across government, financial services, and critical infrastructure.
Actionable Outcomes
Leave with clarity on crypto posture management, roadmap priorities, and how to prepare for quantum-era threats.
Words From Leaders At Previous Dinners
"What set this event apart was the absence of slides, product pitches, or hidden agendas. Instead, it was a gathering of local security leaders engaging in open discussions about our pressing concerns and future challenges. We touched on post-quantum cryptography and the urgency surrounding PQC readiness, but the conversation frequently returned to immediate issues: AI governance, the risks and benefits of Agentic AI, and the foundational security work that must be addressed before PQC can be realistically implemented. The consensus was clear — understanding your current environment, including physical assets, software inventories, and the existing use of cryptography, is essential to establish the baseline that PQC requires."
"After the very enjoyable and engaging evening I spent with ISARA and the group you put
together, I decided to accept a similar invitation from another vendor. Instead of a
pleasant discussion about serious issues, I was treated to a presentation and a sales
pitch. Like your event, they did have some excellent attendees, and I did get to meet them,
but we did not have a chance to engage with each other like we did at your dinner. It was
truly night and day.
I just thought you would like to know that you are way ahead of your peers."
