How does Qrypt’s Quantum Key Generation technology ensure long-term data security?

Qrypt’s Quantum Key Generation technology provides long-term data security by sharing a recipe, instead of transmitting encryption keys, enabling parties to independently create the same key, thereby mitigating the risk of key interception and future decryption.

How do quantum computers threaten smart contract execution and digital signatures?

Quantum computers can break mathematical algorithms used in digital signatures, enabling them to calculate private keys from public keys and forge digital signatures, which can compromise smart contract execution and digital signature integrity. Quantum- resistant cryptography can mitigate these threats by securing data against quantum computing attacks.

Why do I need Post Quantum Cryptography now?

Q: Why do I need Post Quantum Cryptography now?

Data is already at risk. In many environments, it will take up to a decade to migrate to post quantum cryptography. At an absolute minimum, data must be secured with PQC prior to a quantum computer being able to decrypt it. Any data using today’s encryption that is stolen prior to the migration could be decrypted once the quantum computer is available.

The transition to Post Quantum Cryptography is imperative due to the looming threat of quantum computing. Our existing encryption standards could become obsolete once quantum computers become operational. The shift to PQC is not instantaneous and may span across several years, making it prudent to commence this transition sooner. By adopting PQC now, we are fortifying our data against future quantum threats, ensuring that sensitive information remains inaccessible even when intercepted by adversaries equipped with quantum decryption capabilities.
