ID Quantique's Clavis XG: The World's First Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) Product to Obtain National Security Certification
This national accreditation acknowledges Clavis XG as the first quantum-safe cryptography system based on quantum-physics and BB84 QKD protocol to meet stringent national security standards, setting a new milestone in the global quantum cryptography market.
While most government organizations must follow the guidelines and policies of their respective national security authorities, NSR's multi-year security evaluation effort marks a significant milestone for the global QKD industry. IDQ will continue to support the undergoing international efforts for a standardized evaluation of quantum-physics based security solutions. Independent security accreditation programs that are designed and performed by experts in national security test labs enable a higher degree of confidence necessary for the migration to quantum-safe communication across enterprise and government sectors.
Grégoire Ribordy, CEO of ID Quantique, stated,
The QKD approval program included rigorous and comprehensive evaluation of optical and digital subsystems of Clavis XG, as well as the software stack and protocols of the embedded Quantum Key Management System, Clarion KX.
The Clavis XG Series has already proved itself in a wide range of deployments in telecommunication network infrastructures and data centers, meeting and exceeding customers' performance requirements. With a compact 19'' rackmount 1U size, it offers the most advanced footprint in the market. Importantly, our partner interoperability program ensures our customers can immediately benefit from seamless integration with the industry leading range of network encryptors, network operation management suites, and SDNs. Together with the embedded and NIST-approved QRNG as well as the Clarion KX Quantum Key Management suite, a field proven and robust platform for complex network topologies and high SLA deployments, IDQ's partners and customers can now accelerate a cost-effective migration of network infrastructure to Quantum-Safe.
