Quantum-Safe Encryption
Post-quantum cryptography suite for secure satellite communications. CCSDS SDLS compatible with NASA cFS integration.
Prepare your space infrastructure for the post-quantum era. Our encryption suite integrates NIST-selected post-quantum algorithms with existing CCSDS standards, providing a migration path for current and future missions.
Developed under ESA ARTES 4S, this product targets operational satellite communication links where long-term data confidentiality is essential.
Key Features
Post-Quantum Algorithms
NIST-selected algorithms including ML-KEM (Kyber) and ML-DSA (Dilithium) for key encapsulation and digital signatures.
CCSDS SDLS Compatible
Integrates with Space Data Link Security protocol for authenticated encryption of space links.
NASA cFS Integration
Reference implementation for NASA Core Flight System with standardized application interfaces.
Hybrid Mode
Combine classical and post-quantum algorithms during transition period for defense in depth.
Why Quantum-Safe Now?
Space missions often have operational lifetimes of 15+ years. Data transmitted today using classical cryptography could be stored by adversaries and decrypted once quantum computers become available — the "harvest now, decrypt later" threat.
Critical command links and sensitive science data need protection that will remain secure throughout the mission lifetime and beyond.
