NTT has developed a quantum-resistant secure transport system that can switch encryption methods without stopping communication.
The system uses the company’s proprietary Elastic Key Control technology (a technology that flexibly combines multiple encryption methods), which allows different encryption methods to be quickly and safely combined and switched smoothly.
This effectively protects data from current and future security threats.
The system incorporates cutting-edge quantum-resistant encryption as an encryption method, meets the new security standards required by the American standardization organization NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology), and effectively prevents decryption by quantum computers.
The system will be used in the IOWN international APN connecting Japan and Taiwan, and will be exhibited at NTT R&D FORUM 2024, which will be held from the 25th to the 29th.
