ENISA Publishes “Post-Quantum Cryptography – Integration study”

The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) has released a report titled “Post-Quantum Cryptography – Integration Study,” offering a comprehensive look at the challenges and necessities of integrating post-quantum cryptographic systems. This publication follows ENISA’s 2021 study on the current state of post-quantum cryptography and aims to provide a clearer understanding of the post-standardization landscape.

The report highlights the critical need to design new cryptographic protocols and effectively integrate post-quantum systems into existing frameworks. As the quantum computing era approaches, ensuring the confidentiality and security of data against quantum-capable attackers is becoming increasingly urgent. ENISA’s latest study explores strategic approaches to these challenges, emphasizing the importance of hybrid implementations that combine pre-quantum and post-quantum schemes.

I am the Founder of Applied Quantum (AppliedQuantum.com), a research-driven professional services firm dedicated to helping organizations unlock the transformative power of quantum technologies. Alongside leading its specialized service, Secure Quantum (SecureQuantum.com)—focused on quantum resilience and post-quantum cryptography—I also invest in cutting-edge quantum ventures through Quantum.Partners. Currently, I’m completing a PhD in Quantum Computing and authoring an upcoming book “Practical Quantum Resistance” (QuantumResistance.com) while regularly sharing news and insights on quantum computing and quantum security at PostQuantum.com. I’m primarily a cybersecurity and tech risk expert with more than three decades of experience, particularly in critical infrastructure cyber protection. That focus drew me into quantum computing in the early 2000s, and I’ve been captivated by its opportunities and risks ever since. So my experience in quantum tech stretches back decades, having previously founded Boston Photonics and PQ Defense where I engaged in quantum-related R&D well before the field’s mainstream emergence. Today, with quantum computing finally on the horizon, I’ve returned to a 100% focus on quantum technology and its associated risks—drawing on my quantum and AI background, decades of cybersecurity expertise, and experience overseeing major technology transformations—all to help organizations and nations safeguard themselves against quantum threats and capitalize on quantum-driven opportunities.
