Cryptography and quantum computing
Cryptography and quantum computing

Cryptography has long been one of the best ways to protect digital information from unauthorized access - for example, to comply with legal regulations such as the GDPR or industry-related rules. But it is also about protecting confidential data from theft by cybercriminals. However, a comparatively new discussion raises questions regarding the reliability of cryptographic security: Are cryptographic methods, such as the RSA cryptosystem, still secure even with the availability of extremely powerful quantum computers? To ensure the security of encrypted data, it is important to now...

Post-Quantum ready PKI
Post-Quantum ready PKI

An identity, payment and data security provider has announced the general availability of its “post-quantum ready” PKI-as-a-Service (PKIaaS PQ) platform. This means the company's cloud-based PKI-as-a-Service offering can now provide both composite and pure quantum secure CA hierarchies. This in turn enables customers to test or implement quantum-safe scenarios and infrastructures. Entrust's solution is the first commercially available platform of its kind. “While the threat of quantum computing is still several years ahead, the transition to quantum-safe algorithms will mean much more than just another crypto refresh cycle. In preparation, the…

Many companies are unprepared for the transition to post-quantum cryptography. Keyfactor aims to use PKI and cryptographic management to guide companies through the transition to post-quantum security, particularly in securing emerging IoT devices. Keyfactor today announced the release of two product updates: EJBCA 8.0 and SignServer 6.0. The updates bring significant advances in IoT (Internet-of-Things) security and lay the foundations for post-quantum readiness, as many organizations see greater security needs and protection against cyberattacks in relation to recent developments in these areas. New Features of EJBCA 8.0 Preparing for Post-Quantum Support of…

Guide to the current state of quantum secure cryptography
B2B Cyber ​​Security ShortNews

The BSI, the Federal Office for Information Security, publishes guidelines on the current status of quantum-secure cryptography. The report can be downloaded free of charge from the BSI. Quantum computers, quantum cryptography and quantum technologies - developments in this area seem increasingly confusing. The new guidelines of the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) "Designing cryptography quantum-secure - basics, developments, recommendations" summarizes the current state of research. The guideline provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals, illuminates the interrelationships of the latest developments, discusses current measures and names open research questions. He also describes the opportunities and risks of ...
