In 2025, we broke down the Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite 2.0. Since then, the urgency for quantum-resistance has only grown. As 2030 approaches, the window for migrating traditional networking equipment is narrowing. We’re looking back at the core requirements of CNSA 2.0 to ensure your PQC strategy is still on track for 2026 and beyond. https://hubs.li/Q040hhkR0 #postquantum #cryptography #quantumsafe #NIST #PQC #CNSA

In this paper, we present a simpler, more efficient way to create a secure, quantum-resistant shared "vault" (a threshold KEM) without using overly complex or slow mathematical tools. It's achieved by combining established cryptographic frameworks with a new, proven mathematical assumption called Coset-Hint-MLWE. The result is a highly secure system that is easier to implement and more practical for real-world use than previous versions.

"The world’s technology supply chain needs to be quantum-proof by 2035, in line with guidelines from NIST, NCSC and more. To meet this deadline, organizations need to think risk-first and time-to-impact.” Our VP of Product Security Dr. Axel York Poschmann has spoken to SDxCentral’s Giacomo Lee about the challenges of implementing hybrid cryptography schemes. Hybrid schemes are a vital step in the transition to full post-quantum adoption, and allow an organisation to prioritise the protection of the longest-lived, most confidential data.

How should you prioritize your systems, ready for the transition to post-quantum cryptography? In a new report for the financial sector, Europol along with FS-ISAC and the Quantum Resilience Working Group, have published key guidance, using a methodology that's based on a balance of quantum risk and migration time. It's a great resource - written in plain English, and it comes at a critical moment for the financial sector.

We are delighted to share that we are involved in several works being presented at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) MPTS workshop on the 26th -29th January 2026. Two of these talks are Preview Talks, which aim to present incoming submissions for the NIST MPTC project. Our talks on the 28th January: 💡Regular Talk: "Lattice-based Threshold Blind Signatures" presented by Guilhem Niot 💡Preview Talk: "Hermine: An Efficient Raccoon-Style Non-Interactive Threshold Signature with Advanced Properties" presented by Thomas Prest 💡Preview Talk: "Mithril: Efficient Threshold ML-DSA from Secret Sharing with Short Shares" presented by Guilhem Niot We have also been involved in the following talks who will be presented by others on the day: Preview Talk: "Tanuki: Two-round Threshold Signatures from Lattices" presented by Akira Takahashi (J.P. Morgan) Preview Talk: "Amber: Lattice-Based Threshold KEM from the BCHK+ Transform" presented by Oleksandra (Sasha) Lapiha (Royal Holloway, University of London) Preview Talk: "Vinaigrette: An Optimized Framework for Threshold UOV and MAYO Signatures" presented by Sofia Celi (Brave) All talks will take place virtually.

The G7 Cyber Expert Group has published a high-level roadmap for post-quantum transition, aimed at the financial sector. In this article, we take a look at the detail: the key considerations, and crucially, the phased migration activities recommended by the G7. It's a significant milestone showing once again the importance of planning, prioritizing and managing risk.
