Thales PQC Partner Ecosystem Facilitates and Accelerates Quantum-Safe Migrations
josh.pearson@t…

As many organizations begin to embark on their journey toward Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) resilience, Thales can facilitate and perhaps accelerate these migrations with its rapidly expanding Thales PQC Partner Ecosystem. The PQC migration process will be a highly significant transformation in the public-key cryptography landscape to date, impacting billions of devices and applications within the world’s digital security infrastructure. This is because today’s digital infrastructures are profoundly reliant on traditional asymmetric cryptography based on RSA or ECC schemes. However, to protect sensitive data against the looming threat of quantum computing, several government agencies such as NIST, CSA, and NSA are urging moving to quantum-safe algorithms. These include the newly developed CRYSTALS-Kyber (general encryption) and CRYSTALS-Dilithium, FALCON, and SPHINCS+ (digital signatures) algorithms pending finalizations by NIST.

According to a recent Gartner report, companies must immediately start their PQC readiness plans given the complicated and extensive nature of these migratory endeavors. This considerable undertaking includes the need for crypto-discovery, prioritization, remediation, and testing. The report also cites several leading Technology and Consulting companies with PQC-relevant solutions.

With the rise of Harvest Now Decrypt Later attacks, Thales is committed to helping customers succeed and supports a crypto-agile strategy that preserves the current security offered by traditional cryptography while adding in needed PQC protections.

About the Thales PQC Ecosystem

To facilitate and accelerate quantum-safe readiness, Thales is also committed to fostering a collaborative PQC ecosystem to ensure successful PQC-ready migration outcomes for everyone. This includes working with a variety of Consulting, Implementation, and Technology partners across both the private and public sectors most recently showcased during the RSAC2024 “Thales PQC Palooza” thought leadership forum which featured 12 panelists and industry experts with over 250 attendees.

Customers reap the benefits of building their quantum-safe infrastructures with a vetted, world-class ecosystem that includes market leaders in their respective segments to ensure a success PQC transformation while also helping reduce risk, cost, and complexity.

Sample services provided by Thales PQC Ecosystem partners can include iterative and phased advisory services, skilled implementations, Centers of Excellence for testing, Quantum Random Number Generation (QRNG), Quantum Resistant PKI, and Crypto Discovery, among many others.

Early advisory partners participating in the Thales PQC Ecosystem include Accenture, Capgemini, Deloitte, DXC, Kyndryl, Encryption Consulting and IBM Consulting. Technology Partners also include: DigiCert, Keyfactor, InfoSec Global, PQ Shield, Quantinuum, SandboxAQ, Senetas, and IDQ.

About Thales PQC Initiatives

As a leading global technology and security provider, Thales is committed to ensuring a quantum-safe future even contributing to the development of the NIST Falcon algorithm. Through continuous innovations and investment across its portfolio, the company offers several quantum-ready and crypto-agile data security solutions to meet customer needs. These include encryption key protections with Luna HSMs, High Speed Encryptors, and the CipherTrust Data Security Platform.

Thales PQC Starter Kits

In conjunction with one of our PQC Ecosystem members, Thales together with Quantinuum has created a first-of-its-kind offering to help organizations test and prepare for post-quantum cryptography. The Luna PQC Starter Kit incorporates Luna HSMs and Quantinuum’s quantum random number generation (QRNG) technology through which customers can ensure their keys are securely generated and stored while testing the PQC algorithms.

To protect vulnerable data in motion a Thales PQC Starter Kit for Network Encryption is now available.

Conclusion

While PQC migratory endeavors are a lengthy and years-long process, Thales is proud to facilitate customer success with the Thales PQC Partner Ecosystem. To learn more about our PQC initiatives and partnerships, click here.
