Lumen Expands Quantum Footprint with Ohio State Fiber Research and Fortinet PQC SASE Rollout

Lumen Technologies is advancing quantum technology with two new initiatives. They are partnering with The Ohio State University to research quantum network transport over commercial optical fiber, and integrating Fortinet's post-quantum cryptography into their SASE solution to enhance enterprise security. These efforts aim to overcome challenges in quantum signal transmission and protect against future decryption threats. The post Lumen Expands Quantum Footprint with Ohio State Fiber Researc...

NIST Releases Final IR 8547 Establishing Definitive Post-Quantum Cryptography Transition Timeline and Deprecation Schedules

NIST has released its final roadmap, NIST IR 8547, for transitioning to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards, with federal agencies facing binding deadlines to adopt PQC for key establishment by December 31, 2030, and digital signatures by December 31, 2031. Classical public-key algorithms will be deprecated after 2030 and disallowed after 2035. The report emphasizes the urgency of PQC adoption due to "Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" attacks and provides guidelines for hybrid schemes during...

IonQ Deploys Intercontinental Hybrid QKD and PQC Architecture Securing Enterprise Links Between Geneva and Seoul

IonQ has deployed a hybrid quantum-safe security network connecting its facilities in Geneva, Switzerland, and Seoul, South Korea. This network integrates Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) with Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) to protect sensitive data against emerging quantum threats. This internal commercial operationalization serves as a blueprint for multinational enterprises and sovereign institutions facing accelerated post-quantum migration deadlines. The post IonQ Deploys Intercontinenta...

IDEMIA and KT Deploy Quantum-Resistant SIMs Supporting Dual NIST and KpqC Algorithms for South Korean Military Networks

IDEMIA Secure Transactions and KT Corporation are deploying quantum-resistant SIMs in South Korea's military networks, supporting both NIST and Korean Post-Quantum Cryptography (KpqC) algorithms. This initiative, part of South Korea's 2026 Post-Quantum Cryptography Pilot Conversion Project, aims to enhance crypto-agility and secure military communications against future quantum threats. The SIMs act as a hardware root of trust, offloading intensive cryptographic handshakes from host devices a...

NowSecure Benchmark Finds 97% of Mobile Applications Lack Post-Quantum Cryptography Ahead of Mandated Timelines

A recent study by NowSecure, evaluating over 136,000 mobile apps, reveals that 97% lack Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), leaving them vulnerable to future quantum attacks. This "mobile gap" is largely due to reliance on third-party SDKs and compiled libraries that traditional security scans miss. With regulatory deadlines approaching (e.g., US federal agencies by 2030-2031), organizations urgently need to prioritize PQC migration for mobile applications. The post NowSecure Benchmark Finds 97...
