NRI SecureTechnologies, Ltd. launched a migration support service to post-quantum cryptography to help companies and organizations smoothly and safely migrate from conventional cryptographic technologies used in their information systems to post-quantum cryptography.
The need to move to quantum-hardened encryption
With the development of quantum computers, it is possible that existing encryption techniques may be cracked in a short time in the future. To address this threat, PQC is attracting attention as a new encryption technique that is resistant to the processing power of quantum computers.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which leads the standardization of cryptographic technology, is working on the standardization of PQC, and the US government has set a target of transitioning to PQC by the mid-2030s. In Japan, the government and other organizations are considering how to respond to PQC, and have established the “Inter-Ministerial and Agency Liaison Conference on the Use of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) in Government Agencies and Other Organizations”. It is expected that the transition to PQC and its consideration will spread rapidly in various industries and organizations in the future.

This service provides support in five main steps, from considering migration to PQC to formulating a roadmap. When migrating, it is necessary to accurately understand and visualize which parts of the system use which encryption technologies, and then properly organize the migration priorities. NRIセキュア‘s experts, who have specialized knowledge of security and encryption technologies, will support the migration to PQC effectively and efficiently.
