I’m on the Program Committee for the Workshop on Secure Protocol Implementations in the Quantum Era (#SPIQE). We are looking for submissions that bridge the gap between theoretical protocols and the practical realities of #PQC migration.
If you're working on making implementations secure, private, and quantum-safe, I'd love to see your work on the review pile.
📍 Location: Lisbon, Portugal (colocated w EuroS&P 2026)
📅 Dates: July 6–10, 2026
⏰ Deadline: March 12, 2026
