The Australian government is officially acting on the quantum threat! The Australian government has made a significant move in fortifying the nation’s cybersecurity framework with its updated Guidelines for Cryptography (December 2024). These comprehensive updates cover essential areas like transitioning to Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), robust cryptographic key management practices, and ASD-approved protocols for securing sensitive data. Key highlights include: 🔒 Phasing out cryptographic algorithms that will no longer be approved by the Australian government beyond 2030. 🌐 Focus on integrating international standards, including ISO and NIST recommendations, to ensure interoperability and trust. ⚙️ Emphasis on securing data in transit and at rest with advanced cryptographic techniques. At ExeQuantum, we see this as an important step towards a quantum-secure future, especially with the looming rise of cryptographically relevant quantum computers (CRQCs). As a proud Australian PQC provider, we are ready to help organisations align with these guidelines and future-proof their data against quantum threats. Let’s start preparing today—because tomorrow’s threats are closer than we think. 👉 Read more about the guidelines here: https://lnkd.in/g38fS9f3 #CyberSecurity #PostQuantumCryptography #DataProtection #QuantumComputing #Australia #pqc #regulations #api #protections

News about Cryptographic Algorithms: Australian Signals Directorate's Australian Cyber Security Centre (ASD's ACSC) has recommended: - AES-128 and AES-192 will not be approved for use beyond 2030 RSA will not be approved for use beyond 2030. - SHA-224 and SHA-256 will not be approved for use beyond 2030. - HMAC-SHA256 will not be approved for use beyond 2030. - DH and ECDH will not be approved for use beyond 2030. - ECDSA will not be approved for use beyond 2030. NIST has set the removal for many of these methods in 2035, so Australia may be pushing for the removal of these methods by 2030.

NIST Releases Post-Quantum Cryptography Transition Plan The largest cryptographic shift in digital history is approaching. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has published IR 8547, setting the framework for migration to post-quantum cryptography standards. This transition affects every organization handling sensitive data. The 2035 deadline marks the end of current cryptographic standards. Organizations collecting data today face immediate risks from harvest-now-decrypt-later attacks. The transition requires systematic changes to network protocols, infrastructure, and enterprise systems. NIST introduces three standards: • FIPS 203: Module-Lattice-Based Key-Encapsulation • FIPS 204: Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signatures • FIPS 205: Stateless Hash-Based Signatures Timeline: 2030: Phase-out of 112-bit security algorithms 2035: Complete elimination of quantum-vulnerable systems Decent Cybersecurity provides ready-to-implement PQC solutions: • CryptoSleuth Pro • SpaceShield STM • DroneCrypt UTM • QuantumProof Protocol Start your quantum-resistant transition now.
