SUMMARY:Cryptography Without the Headache: From Assessment Framework to Agi
 le API
DESCRIPTION:Every organization knows cryptography will need to change. New 
 standards arrive\, old algorithms age out\, compliance requirements shift\,
  and vulnerabilities force urgent decisions. Most systems still make those 
 changes painfully expensive by embedding cryptographic choices deep inside 
 applications and infrastructure.\n\nThis talk argues that cryptographic agi
 lity is largely a systems design problem. We begin with a component-based a
 ssessment framework for evaluating how today’s cryptographic APIs support
  or hinder agility\, and use it to examine widely deployed systems such as 
 OpenSSL\, JCA\, Tink\, AWS KMS\, and Vault Transit. The result is a clear d
 iagnosis of why migrations remain slow\, expensive\, and deeply tied to app
 lication code.\n\nWe then show what it takes to fix the problem: an abstrac
 t cryptographic API built around intent-based operations\, policy-driven al
 gorithm selection\, explicit key transformation\, identity-based governance
 \, and pluggable crypto backends. The payoff is a shift from cryptographic 
 change as a distributed rewrite to cryptographic change as a managed contro
 l-plane decision.\n\nAttendees will leave with a practical way to assess th
 eir current cryptographic stack\, a clearer picture of the architectural ga
 ps blocking cryptographic upgrades\, and a concrete API model for building 
 systems that can evolve without breaking applications.\n\nSpeakers: Navanee
