New Developments in Data Security Algorithms

Explore the evolving landscape of data security algorithms and protocols in this 54-minute conference presentation from SNIA SDC 2025. Gain critical insights into how storage developers must adapt to significant changes in data protection methodologies driven by increasing storage device sizes, complex large-scale storage systems, newly discovered vulnerabilities, and advancing encryption attack techniques. Examine the transformations occurring in block encryption algorithms for storage devices and their implementation strategies. Discover post-quantum cryptographic (PQC) algorithms designed to withstand quantum computer attacks and learn about the updated timeline for their adoption across the industry. Understand how various protocols are being modified to incorporate new algorithms and manage the transition to post-quantum cryptography. Master the identification of standards that define the technical specifications of these emerging algorithms and protocols. Presented by Paul Suhler from IEEE, this presentation equips storage professionals with essential knowledge about current developments in data protection algorithms, protocol updates, and their interconnected relationships in modern storage environments.
