PQC is a quantum-resilient public key cryptography software designed to withstand the capabilities of large-scale quantum computers. Built with NIST PQC standards, it brings the next generation of quantum-resistant encryption without disrupting your existing infrastructure.
PQC is a post-quantum cryptographic algorithm with NIST PQC studies as a reference.
It is designed to replace traditional RSA-based systems with a stronger, quantum-resistant transport layer. It leverages mathematical functions selected by NIST that are significantly harder to reverse-engineer compared to prime factorization and elliptic curve-based systems currently used in PKI.
In response, post-quantum cryptography (PQC) has emerged as a field devoted to developing quantum-resistant algorithms. Modern PQC implementations demand not only algorithmic resilience but also entropy sources that are immune to quantum-accelerated bias exploitation.
NIST began working on post-quantum algorithms in 2014. By July 2020, after the third round of evaluations, NIST narrowed the field to seven finalists and eight alternate algorithms. We selected lattice-based algorithms—recognized for their superior security—for use in PQC. As NIST’s standards evolve, PQC will seamlessly adapt without impacting ongoing operations.
Organizations that utilize computers and networks are under Q-Day threat. Q-Day is the moment when Quantum computers can break today’s encryption. Data is your most valuable asset. Sensitive information often needs to be protected for 10+ years, and in many cases, 25 years. The risk of waiting is high. Transitioning to post-quantum Cryptography is the best way to protect data in the future, as well as now.
Digital transformation is changing with external risks and quantum technology. Security systems need to change with the technology they are protecting.
Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) supports seamless integration with existing and future infrastructure. It adheres to NIST standards for ease of deployment, assuring compatibility and agility while minimizing disruption during transition.
PQC operates similarly to today’s PKI systems, providing easy–to–use and simple implementation experience. It can also work in hybrid mode with enQase’s broader security suite, including:
Together, they deliver comprehensive, quantum-safe security, not just resistance.
If your data matters tomorrow, it needs protection today.
