PQC Migration for Emergency Communications Networks: TETRA, LTE, and 5G
Technical workshop for communications engineers and security leads at blue-light services, national emergency communications programmes, and PPDR network operators. Covers the quantum cryptographic exposure of TETRA air interface encryption (TEA1-TEA4), LTE/5G MCPTT key management, and the ETSI TETRA standards trajectory on PQC. Addresses the specific operational constraints of emergency service communications: always-on availability, interoperability requirements, and equipment replacement cycles.
- TETRA air interface encryption: TEA1-4 quantum vulnerability and PQC alternatives
- MCPTT over LTE/5G: key management architecture and post-quantum migration pathway
- ETSI TETRA and CCBG standards: PQC trajectory and standards body engagement
- Interoperability constraints: migrating PQC across multi-agency emergency networks
- Operational continuity requirements and migration sequencing for always-on systems
