I am a Senior Subject Matter Expert in OpenShift and hybrid cloud infrastructure, with hands-on experience designing, supporting, and operating large-scale containerized platforms across enterprise environments.

I have presented at major international conferences on cloud-native and infrastructure topics, and I bring a practitioner's perspective to every talk focused on what engineers can actually do, not just what the industry is theorizing about.

Q-Day Is Coming: What Every Linux Developer Should Do Right Now
Rohit Londhe

RSA is dying, not today, but we already know the clock is ticking.

Recent breakthroughs have slashed physical qubit requirements for factoring RSA-2048 from millions to under one million, with IBM roadmapping a fault-tolerant quantum computer by 2029.

Q-Day is the moment a quantum computer becomes powerful enough to break RSA and ECC encryption, the foundation of TLS, SSH, GPG, and virtually every Linux system you run.

Worse, malicious actors are likely already carrying out "harvest now, decrypt later" attacks, collecting your encrypted traffic today, waiting for the quantum unlock.

In this 15-minute lightning talk, you'll get zero theory and maximum action: a practical checklist to audit your Linux stack, understand the new NIST PQC standards already shipping in OpenSSL 3.5, and make your systems crypto-agile before the window closes.
