Securing India's Critical Data in the Age of DPDP and Quantum Threats
23rd July, 2026 | 03:00 PM Onwards
Overview
India’s data security landscape is shifting fast. The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act has moved from policy to mandate — placing accountability for data access, audit trails, and breach response squarely on organizations. Meanwhile, quantum computing is advancing a threat that isn’t theoretical anymore: legacy encryption protecting today’s sensitive data can be harvested now and decrypted later. For BFSI and Manufacturing enterprises sitting on high volumes of regulated data, the risk exposure is compounding.
In this session, IBM will walk you through how IBM Guardium helps organizations address both the near-term compliance imperative and the long-term cryptographic risk — from a single, unified platform.
Key takeways:
Database Activity Monitoring (DAM):
Gain real-time visibility into sensitive data access across hybrid, on-premises, cloud and SaaS environments. Automate audits, enforce policies and use AI-driven anomaly detection to simplify DPDP compliance, audits and DPIAs.
CBOM for Quantum Readiness:
Discover and inventory cryptographic assets across the enterprise, enabling organizations to assess exposure and prioritize migration to post-quantum cryptography.
QBOM for Quantum Readiness:
Identify quantum-vulnerable cryptography, evaluate risk and accelerate the transition to post-quantum standards ahead of the NIST 2030 deprecation timeline.
Industry Context:
BFSI: Meet RBI IT Governance and SEBI CSCRF DAM requirements while preparing long-lived financial data for the quantum era. Manufacturing: Protect IP, operational data and supply chains from insider threats and future cryptographic risks.
What you'll take away:
A clear framework for phasing your data security posture — from DPDP compliance readiness today to crypto-agility for the quantum era tomorrow — and a view of how IBM’s approach integrates both without duplicating your security stack.
