SUMMARY:Roundtable: Securing Telecommunications for the Quantum Era
DESCRIPTION:Telecommunications networks carry the traffic that every other 
 sector's post-quantum migration depends on\, and they are among the hardest
  systems to change. Network equipment\, SIM and eSIM platforms\, and roamin
 g and interconnect agreements run on long lifecycles and span many operator
 s\, vendors\, and standards bodies. Industry guidance\, including the GSMA'
 s post-quantum telco work and ongoing 3GPP and IETF standardization\, now g
 ives operators a common starting point. The open question is how to turn th
 at guidance into concrete plans across shared infrastructure.\n\nThis round
 table brings together mobile and fixed operators\, network and SIM vendors\
 , standards contributors\, and regulators for a working discussion rather t
 han a series of presentations. After a short introduction from the moderato
 r\, participants will work through where operators are starting in practice
 : cryptographic inventory across the network\, protection of signaling and 
 management interfaces\, subscriber identity and SIM provisioning\, and the 
 IoT estates that will outlive today's algorithms.\n\nThe discussion will gi
 ve particular attention to the dependencies no single operator can resolve 
 alone\, from roaming and interconnect partners to equipment vendors and the
  timing of standards. It will also cover what operators need from regulator
 s to keep national and cross-border migration aligned.\n\nThe main conclusi
 ons will feed into a brief recap during the conference's closing session.\n
