For governments and defense agencies, data sovereignty is paramount. They need to ensure that critical national data – whether defense secrets, intellectual property, taxpayer information or even the electoral register – is accessed only by the right people at the right time. Of all entities, government data security requirements are the longest, stretching up to 50 years in the case of official secrets.
IDQ solutions are used by government across the world to help counter such threats, offering long term data security into and beyond the quantum era, while helping to reduce operational costs.
With the advent of the quantum era, when the massive computational power of quantum computers will render much of today’s encryption unsafe, it is essential for governments to deploy “quantum-ready” solutions already today.
Your encryption can be upgraded with IDQ’s Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) systems to ensure quantum safe security. QKD ensures provably secure encryption key exchange, guarding against the presence of eavesdroppers and guaranteeing proven secrecy of information even against the threat of quantum computers. As the threats increase, and resources become ever more constrained, QKD offers government and defence agencies the chance to build defense in depth, based on a provably secure key distribution, while reducing the costs and operation complexities of physical key distribution.
IDQ already works with government agencies, defense departments and public administration clients all over the world, securing everything from data transfer during elections to inter-ministry data and backbone SAN connections.
