About Nokia
Nokia puts quantum mechanics to use as a tool for communication, privacy and detection as well as computation, and groups its work into four areas: quantum computing, quantum networks, quantum security and quantum sensing. Nokia Bell Labs carries out the fundamental research, and Nokia builds enterprise and communications solutions on it.
Nokia Quantum-Safe Networks (QSN) takes a defence-in-depth approach, applying quantum-safe cryptography at one or more network layers depending on the business requirement. Keys can be classical, quantum-physics based or mathematical post-quantum cryptography, with a range of key management options, complemented by AES-256 network encryption at the optical, Ethernet, MPLS and IP layers.
The approach pairs crypto-agility, the ability to change cryptography as standards and threats evolve, with crypto-resilience, an additional layer of quantum-safe network cryptography. Nokia also takes part in the standards organisations that will determine how quantum technologies enter future ICT standards, and works with partners across the communications industry to develop and test them.
