Future-Proofing Risk: Managing Quantum and AI Orchestration

The fusion of quantum computing and artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming risk governance, presenting intricate challenges for risk managers. This advanced-level workshop equips risk managers with tools to navigate this paradigm, leveraging the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 and the NIST Quantum Profile (March 2025) to address quantum-AI risks. 

Participants will explore AI risk categories—technical and operational—while aligning with ISO standards mapped to CSF 2.0. Through case studies and scenario analyses, the workshop tackles quantum-driven cryptographic vulnerabilities, supply-chain disruptions, and geopolitical complexities. Risk managers will understand the benefit of adaptive governance frameworks to mitigate these risks, harnessing quantum-AI synergies for precise, resilient decision-making. Tailored for experienced risk professionals, this session integrates NIST and ISO standards with actionable strategies, empowering attendees to future-proof their organizations in a volatile, converging technology-driven landscape.

Learning Objectives:

• Design Robust Integrated Governance Frameworks: Master the use of NIST CSF 2.0 and the NIST Quantum Profile (March 2025) to create adaptive risk management frameworks, incorporating ISO/IEC 27001:2022 for compliance.
• Analyze Quantum and AI Risk Overlaps and Differences: Gain expertise in assessing technical and operational AI risks alongside quantum threats, understanding overlaps, while distinguishing differences
• Implement Mitigation Strategies Using Blockchain and Digital Twins: Develop deep-tech powered approaches to mitigate quantum-AI risks through blockchain combined with digital twins, ensuring organizational resilience in complex technological environments.
