The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) has unveiled its first post-quantum cybersecurity standard aimed at safeguarding critical data and communications against the threats posed by future quantum computing. This standard, titled TS 104 105 or Covercrypt, proposes a hybridized approach to Key Encapsulation Mechanisms (KEMs), ensuring that data remains accessible only to authorized users through defined access policies. This breakthrough enables efficient encapsulation and decapsulation processes, making it easily integrable into existing security systems to bolster both present and future data protection strategies against evolving cyber threats.
ETSI's latest specification marks a significant milestone in the transition to post-quantum cryptography, empowering organizations to safeguard their sensitive data both for today and for the decades ahead.
This standard is fundamental to the quantum future, ensuring that only authorized users are able to access sensitive data through effective encapsulation policies.
