SEALSQ Corp, specializing in Semiconductors, PKI, and Post-Quantum technology, introduced its latest post-quantum semiconductor tech. The technology focuses on advanced cryptographic algorithms designed to resist potential threats from quantum computing and secure cryptocurrency transactions.
LTIMindtree, a global tech company, introduced a Quantum-Safe Virtual Private Network (VPN) at its London site, enhancing data protection against potential decryption threats. This VPN applies Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), utilizing quantum-based key generation and secure key delivery methods that align with NIST standards for data security.
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 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.
From seatbelts to GDPR, any time new standards are introduced, their adoption naturally comes with a certain amount of industry upheaval—and that’s exactly what we’re now seeing with post-quantum cryptography (PQC).
QuSecure announced that its industry-leading PQC solution QuProtect™ won the 2022 CyberSecured Award, as announced in December by 1105 Media’s Security Today brand, the leading industry media brand providing technology, education and solutions for security professionals.
The migration to quantum-safe algorithms could take several years, and for some industries – like healthcare and financial services – the transition is already underway due to technology lifecycles and long-life data that has to remain secure.
Quantum sensing and post-quantum cryptography are two technologies that researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology will be prioritizing in the coming year as researchers focus on the logistics behind commercializing applied quantum technologies.
Founder and CEO Bart Slowik created SylLab Systems, which is based on post-quantum cryptography to push peers into considering that exact future.
Even when PQC algorithms are mathematically secure, they can potentially be broken by a class of exploits known as side-channel attacks. These attacks exploit the algorithm implementation in hardware or software rather than the underlying mathematical problem itself and underline how important it is that any side-channel vulnerabilities are identified and addressed before solutions are widely rolled out.
