Quantum-safe infrastructure: technical writing from the team
QKD protocols, post-quantum cryptography, and migration readiness from our engineering and cryptographic systems teams.
The Harvest-Now, Decrypt-Later Threat: What Operators Need to Know Now
Adversaries with long collection mandates are archiving your encrypted traffic today. The threat is not contingent on a quantum computer existing yet. We examine the collection timeline, which network types face the most exposure, and what satellite QKD does to close the window.

Satellite QKD vs. Fiber QKD: Infrastructure Constraints and When Each Fits
Both deliver information-theoretic key material, but the deployment requirements and coverage properties are very different. Devraj Nambiar compares the tradeoffs.
NIST PQC Standards Finalized: What Network Operators Actually Need to Do
FIPS 203, 204, and 205 are published. Fatima Al-Rashid breaks down the algorithm choices, migration priority, and what "hybrid mode" means in practice.
AI-Assisted Routing in Quantum Key Networks: Scheduling Orbital Passes Under Atmospheric Uncertainty
Satellite QKD throughput is non-deterministic. Devraj Nambiar explains how adaptive scheduling improves key delivery reliability without compromising the quantum channel.
Quantum-Safe Banking Readiness: A Self-Assessment for South Asian Financial Institutions
Richa Hukumchand walks through the eight factors that determine how urgent a bank's quantum migration is, and what the first 90 days of a pilot deployment look like.
Threat Model for Critical Infrastructure: Why OT Encryption Has a Shorter Window Than IT
Industrial control systems run on equipment with 15-year replacement cycles. Fatima Al-Rashid examines why this makes them more exposed to harvest-now attacks than IT networks.
PQC Hybrid Mode: Why Running ML-KEM Alongside Classical Algorithms Is the Right Migration Strategy
Fatima Al-Rashid explains the cryptographic and operational rationale for hybrid PQC mode during the transition period, and when it is safe to deprecate the classical layer.
Zero Trust Meets Quantum-Safe: How QKD and PQC Fit Into a Zero Trust Architecture
Devraj Nambiar maps the touchpoints between zero trust principles and quantum-safe key exchange, and shows where QKD strengthens rather than duplicates what zero trust already provides.
Building a Satellite Constellation for Continuous QKD Coverage: Relay Architecture and Pass Scheduling
A single satellite provides intermittent downlinks. Richa Hukumchand explains the constellation geometry and relay protocols needed for continuous QKD availability over a regional network.
QKD Latency in a City-Scale Network: What the Numbers Look Like and How to Budget for Them
Devraj Nambiar covers the components of QKD key delivery latency, why it is different from classical key exchange latency, and how to size your key buffer for real network conditions.
Entropy Source Quality and PQC Key Generation: Why Your RNG May Be the Weakest Link
Fatima Al-Rashid examines the entropy requirements for ML-KEM and ML-DSA key generation, the failure modes of software entropy sources under load, and why hardware entropy matters for high-throughput PQC.
Government Telecom Quantum Readiness: Procurement Cycles, Compliance Timelines, and Where to Start
Richa Hukumchand surveys the quantum readiness landscape for state-owned and government-adjacent telecom operators in South Asia and outlines a starting framework for procurement teams.
