The ACM Conference on Post-Quantum and Quantum-based Security (PQQS) is a premier forum dedicated to research at the intersection of cybersecurity and quantum technologies. The inaugural edition of PQQS establishes a new international forum dedicated to the theory and practice of information security in the emerging quantum era. The conference brings together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government to advance both foundational and applied aspects of classical (including post-quantum and information-theoretic) and quantum approaches to information security, and to explore novel applications of quantum information. It aims to provide a unified venue for rigorous, forward-looking research addressing the challenges of securing information in a quantum-enabled world. The conference spans quantum-enabled security systems, quantum-safe security approaches (including post-quantum and information-theoretic methods), and security of quantum systems bringing together perspectives from theory, systems, deployment, and standardization.
