Description:
Q-Day is coming, so protecting against threats now is more important than ever

FULL STORY
======================================================================

LastWall has unveiled a quantum-safe Transport Layer Security terminator and 
load balancer, Quantum Shield , which it says offers protection against the 
inevitable threats presented by Q-Day. 

The quantum-safe solution is designed to be crypto-agile, and can be rapidly 
and easily updated to comply with the latest NIST security standards. 

Quantum cryptographic resilience is central to our product stack, with our 
identity platform built around this as a core defensive principle, stated 
Karl Holmqvist, Founder and CEO, Lastwall. Having successfully provided 
transport layer resilience to our internal and client security operations, we 
now aim to make it accessible to all organizations through our Quantum Shield 
offering." Protecting against Q-Day 

For the uninitiated, Q-Day is an unknown date in the future when quantum 
computing will be commercially available, and could be used to easily crack 
current encryption methods. 

In advance of this day, threat actors are utilizing a steal-now-decrypt-later 
methodology to steal encrypted files with the purpose of decrypting them in 
the future using quantum computing. This means that nearly all traditional 
encryption methods are vulnerable, and hold value for attackers looking to 
steal sensitive data. 

The urgency to protect critical data intensifies as the acceleration of 
quantum computational capabilities advances. Having a fast, easy-to-deploy 
solution that has been thoroughly vetted will be helpful to those who 
recognize the need to act now, Holqvist concluded. More from TechRadar Pro
