Project Overview
A globally operating enterprise with a complex IT landscape faced the challenge of rapidly and efficiently securing its entire communication infrastructure against future quantum attacks. Existing systems, applications, and protocols were to remain unchanged in order to avoid operational disruptions and high migration costs.
With PQInfraprotect, developed in collaboration with Deutsche Telekom Security, a solution was implemented that adds a quantum-safe protective layer across the existing infrastructure within a very short time. Without any changes to applications or protocols, the company was able to modernize its security architecture immediately while maintaining full operational continuity.
Challenges
Complex legacy systems that are difficult to migrate to new cryptographic standards.
High effort and cost associated with migrating individual applications and services.
Opaque and highly interconnected IT infrastructures with numerous dependencies.
Time-critical threat from “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks on sensitive data.
Risk of operational disruptions due to invasive security implementations.
