Proximus and Nokia demonstrate future of network security with Europe’s first live hybrid quantum encryption trial
Nokia’s technology establishes a quantum-safe optical network connection using quantum key distribution (QKD) to encrypt and transmit data between datacenters located in Brussels and Mechelen
“Network security is not just a vital business priority; it’s the bedrock upon which our digital operations thrive. In an increasingly interconnected world, where data breaches and cyber threats loom large, protecting our networks is paramount. To prepare for Q-day, we need to take the proactive steps to safeguard our critical systems from quantum threats and this live trial is the first step. Working with Nokia and its partners, we’re confident that we’ll be able to continue to safeguard our critical systems and successfully navigate the ever-evolving threat landscape in the quantum computing world.”
