Facing the Quantum Threat
The risks posed by quantum computing will soon be inescapable, and the security of data stored today could be decimated in the near future. To defend against this threat, organizations must adopt a defense-in-depth approach to security, implementing layered solutions that don’t rely on a single line of protection. Quantum key distribution (QKD) leverages the fundamental laws of quantum physics to exchange encryption keys between parties with provable security, providing organizations with the ability to revolutionize their IT infrastructure with the most secure communications known today. Combining QKD with post-quantum cryptographies like lattice-based and hash-based algorithms can provide robust, multilayered security.
