State of Open Con 2025

Organizations globally face shared challenges in managing cryptographic algorithms, which are often undetected, declared in an ad hoc way, and frequently misunderstood in terms of their impact. Departments addressing these issues rarely collaborate, relying on isolated, document-centric processes.

This talk highlights open initiatives enabling crypto algorithm declarations in SBOMs, fostering continuous compliance at scale. It explores implications for security, export control, and quantum safety, showcasing open collaboration as the path forward.
