Full-Stack Entanglement-Based Quantum Network Solution Hits Markets
[A]ttention is turning to quantum networking as a path to mitigating security threats posed by quantum computing while simultaneously scaling the potential of quantum technology to solve problems we cannot tackle using classical technology alone.
Chat Messaging Service Gets Post-Quantum Computing Support
Castle Shield Holdings, LLC, [a provider for] Zero Trust and cybersecurity solutions, announced that its Typhos Secure Communications mobile solution now supports post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algorithms selected by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Taking Contactless Payments to a New Level, Mastercard to Deliver Quantum-Resistant Cards
The protections and purchasing power of contactless payments took a step forward as Mastercard announced the approval of the first cards for issuers that are compatible with the new EMVCo® contactless specifications designed to protect against attacks from both traditional and quantum computers.
Quantum-Resistant Algorithms Will Be Crucial for Protecting Your Business
To determine where post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and conventional cryptography will need to be implemented, businesses will need to understand what of their data needs protecting and what will be worthless to cybercriminals.
Australia’s First Sovereign Quantum-Safe Encryption Service Launched
AUCloud, a provider of sovereign Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), and Arqit Quantum, a provider in quantum-safe encryption, announced general availability to the Asia Pacific region of the first Quantum Safe Symmetric Key Agreement Software.
This Firm Protects Nearly a Fifth of the Internet With Post-Quantum Cryptography
Although many organizations are waiting for post-quantum threats to become tangible before taking action against them, other providers like Content Delivery Network (CDN) giant Cloudflare are diving straight in and responding with quantum-safe solutions.
New Taskforce Will Support the Roadmap for Post-quantum Cryptography and Adoption Across the Global Telecommunications Supply Chain
The GSMA Post-Quantum Telco Network Taskforce will help define requirements, identify dependencies and create the roadmap to implement quantum-safe networking, mitigating the risks associated with future, more-powerful quantum computers.
MDI-QKD Is a Transition Technology and a Logical Next Step on the Path From QKD to a Quantum Internet…
Currently, QKD works on a point-to-point basis. You have a sender (called Alice, in industry parlance) and a receiver, called Bob. Alice and Bob can securely share QKD-encrypted information with each other via a fiber optic network over a limited distance.
Building Quantum Resilience Requires C-Suite Commitment, but It Doesn’t Have to Mean Tearing Out Existing Infrastructure
As we see with government agencies and a host of other organizations, the data you generate today can provide adversaries with tremendous value in the future once they can access it.
