Quantum-Safe Data Protection

QUANTUM COMPUTING THREAT

Large-scale quantum computers would be capable of breaking most of the asymmetric cryptographic schemes in use today. This poses a serious threat to the security of our sensitive data.

HARVEST NOW, DECRYPT LATER

Attackers can harvest encrypted data transmitted over public networks today and decrypt it later using quantum computers, once they become available.

POST-QUANTUM CRYPTOGRAPHY

Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) consists of algorithms that are believed to be resistant against quantum computer attacks, and several have already been standardized. Organizations should begin migrating to PQC as soon as possible.

QUANTUM KEY DISTRIBUTION

Quantum key distribution (QKD) exploits quantum physics to distribute cryptographic keys with theoretically perfect security. Rigorous security evaluation and testing are essential to ensure the absence of side-channel vulnerabilities in QKD systems.

HYBRID SCHEME

The most effective strategy today is to combine PQC and QKD into a hybrid scheme for defense-in-depth. As long as one of them remains secure, sensitive information is protected. The likelihood of an attacker compromising both is extremely low.

SUPPORT

We do not sell QKD or PQC products. As an independent third-party, we are committed to providing unbiased guidance to our clients in selecting the most suitable quantum-safe solutions and in ensuring the security of their sensitive data.

QKD Security Evaluation & Testing

The Thought Projects has extensive expertise in QKD testing and a proven track record in assessing the security of commercial QKD systems. To meet our clients’ needs, we have developed a comprehensive QKD security evaluation and testing methodology.

If you are considering integrating QKD into your network, we invite you to partner with us to ensure the security of your QKD systems and the protection of your sensitive data.
