How AI and quantum are reshaping cybersecurity | SandboxAQ & Accenture at WEF 2025 SandboxAQ 2025-02-06 | The quantum threat to cybersecurity is top of mind for security professionals, especially when combined with growing danger of new AI-driven attacks. How do these powerful technologies work together—for both defense and harm? SandboxAQ and Accenture take you inside our latest co-authored report.At the 2025 World Economic Forum in Davos, Tom Patterson, Managing Director for Emerging Technology Security at Accenture, and Robert E. Williams, Head of Business and Partnerships at SandboxAQ, discuss the intersection of AI and quantum technologies in securing the digital future. Together, they unveil insights from the new report, which highlights the dual role of AI in quantum security—both as a cybersecurity tool and a weapon for adversaries.This engaging conversation dives into the key findings of the report, including:- How AI accelerates the discovery of cryptographic vulnerabilities to secure networks more effectively.- The increasing sophistication of threat actors using AI for targeting and hybrid attacks.- Why organizations must start now to inventory cryptographic assets and plan for long-term resiliency.Tom and Robert also introduce an open-source calculator developed with MIT that helps organizations pinpoint when quantum and AI threats may become critical. The message is clear: The time to act is now.Chapters:00:00 - Intro: Tom Patterson and Robert Williams at Davos 202500:58 - AI’s role in quantum security: Opportunities and threats02:40 - How adversaries use AI in hybrid quantum attacks03:42 - MIT’s risk calculator and the importance of starting cryptographic inventory04:54 - Key Takeaways and next steps Don’t wait—download the co-authored report and start planning for a secure quantum future today.Read the full report here: https://shorturl.at/wfa5OCheck out the calculator: https://futuretech.mit.edu/quantum-economic-advantage-calculatorSubscribe to stay informed on the latest breakthroughs in AI, quantum, and cybersecurity.
