To enable banking, financial services, and insurance leaders in Jordan to understand, evaluate, and strategically plan for the transition to quantum-safe cryptographic systems. The program aims to equip participants with the technical and governance insights required to future-proof financial infrastructure, ensuring resilience against quantum-era cyber threats while aligning with emerging global regulatory and compliance frameworks.

The Quantum Threat Landscape (Quantum vs Classical Computing, Global regulatory trends: NIST PQC, EU, RBI, and ISO initiatives, Banking & financial data at risk: payment rails, interbank messaging, and authentication systems)

2. Anatomy of Quantum-Resilient Cryptography (Core principles of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), Algorithms shortlisted by NIST (Kyber,Dilithium, Falcon, SPHINCS+), Lattice-based vs code-based vs multivariate cryptography)

3. Policy & Governance for Quantum Readiness (Defining a “Quantum Security Policy” – core clauses and reporting architecture, Key risk indicators (KRIs) and metrics for measuring readiness, ISO 27001, DORA).

4. Quantum-Safe Implementation Framework (cryptographic hotspots: payment gateways, data vaults, API ecosystems, Integrating with cloud-native security controls (AWS, Azure, GCP PQC pilots).

5. Simulation & Sectoral Integration (upgrading an interbank messaging protocol with PQC, Cost-benefit analysis and resource modelling for transition, Operational risk and compliance impact)

6. Actionable Blueprint & Institutional Next Steps (How to launch a “Quantum Transition Task Force” internally, Setting up an internal watchlist and audit cadence, Designing measurable quantum resilience KPIs)

This training is specifically designed for policy makers, technology leaders, CISOs, and BFSI decision-makers in Jordan’s financial ecosystem who are responsible for driving cybersecurity strategy, technology modernization, and regulatory compliance. It is particularly relevant for executives from central and commercial banks, insurance firms, capital market authorities, and financial technology regulators seeking to build institutional readiness for post-quantum cryptographic adoption and secure digital finance transformation
