Post-Quantum Joins NIST’s Quantum Migration Project to Enhance Cybersecurity
Post-Quantum has been selected to join the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) Quantum Migration Project. This project will help transition from current public-key cryptographic algorithms to quantum-safe alternatives, addressing the urgent need to protect data from “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later” attacks. In these attacks, encrypted data is stolen now and decrypted later when quantum computers become available.

Quantum-Communication Testbed Deploys Across 3 Cities in Quebec, Over $10M Invested
Montreal, October 23, 2023 – Numana, the catalyst for Quebec’s growing technology ecosystem, today announces the launch of a multi-purpose testbed for quantum-safe communications in Quebec. The project has two objectives. The first being to provide the necessary infrastructure to test emerging quantum-communications technologies. Secondly, this testbed could become one of the cornerstones of a future nationwide quantum communication network, as outlined in Canada’s National Quantum Strategy.
Cybersecurity Coalition Launches to Boost Post-Quantum Cryptography Adoption
A coalition of prominent cybersecurity organizations, including IBM Quantum, Microsoft, MITRE, PQShield, SandboxAQ, and the University of Waterloo, has formed the PQC Coalition to accelerate the global adoption of post-quantum cryptography (PQC). This initiative aims to protect sensitive information from the potential vulnerabilities posed by quantum computing.
QuickLogic and Xiphera Partner for Quantum-Resistant Data Protection
QuickLogic Corporation and Xiphera have teamed up to enhance data security with post-quantum cryptography (PQC) solutions. QuickLogic will incorporate Xiphera’s xQlave™ quantum-secure cryptographic IP cores into its eFPGA architecture. As quantum computers pose a growing threat to data security, this partnership aims to bolster encryption against future quantum attacks.
