NATO cybersecurity center finishes tests of quantum-proof network | Daily Magazine | Scoop.it

The NATO Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has completed its test run of secure communication flows that could withstand attackers using quantum computing.

Konrad Wrona, principal scientist at the NCSC, told ZDNet that it is becoming increasingly important to create protection schemes against current and future threats.  

"Securing NATO's communications for the quantum era is paramount to our ability to operate effectively without fear of interception," Wrona said. 

"The trial started in March 2021. The trial was completed in early 2022. Quantum computing is becoming more and more affordable, scalable and practical. The threat of 'harvest now, decrypt later' is one all organizations, including NATO, are preparing to respond to.
