Dacoso at PMRExpo 2024: Quantum-safe communication for the future

dacoso GmbH is an IT service provider with headquarters in Langen near Frankfurt am Main and other locations in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The company offers customized solutions in the areas of Optical Networks, Intelligent Networks and Cyber Security. One focus is on managed services, which are operated in a certified IT Network Center & Security Operations Center (IT NC/SOC). Since its foundation in 2004, dacoso has relied on a strong, competent and flexible team that is always close to the customer.

Quantum-safe communication: the solution for future security threats

At PMRExpo, dacoso GmbH will be presenting its pioneering solutions in the field of quantum-safe communication. These technologies offer protection against the threats that could arise from the use of quantum computers in cryptography. Current encryption systems such as RSA 2048 or Diffie-Hellman, which are based on one-way mathematical methods, are secure for today's computers. However, with the increasing performance of quantum computers and algorithms such as the Shor algorithm, it will be possible to break into these systems in a few years' time. The quantum-safe solutions from dacoso anticipate this scenario and ensure future-proof encryption today.

Advanced technologies for secure key transmission

dacoso's core technology is based on quantum physical processes that ensure secure key transmission. These systems are designed to meet the increasing security requirements in digital and fiber optic-based networks. The first applications are already being used to connect data centers, where they offer reliable protection for sensitive data. In the future, these solutions will also be used in infrastructure networks and communication systems of public authorities. The innovative technology thus addresses not only the financial sector and high-tech companies, but also organizations that require long-term security for confidential information.

Why there is a need for action today

It is already clear today that data communication that is currently considered secure could be decrypted in the future. Attackers could store encrypted data in order to crack it in a few years' time using quantum computers. Companies and authorities that need to protect sensitive information over long periods of time should therefore take measures at an early stage to ensure quantum-safe communication. Dacoso emphasizes the urgency of investing in future-proof encryption technologies today in order to be able to guarantee maximum security in 5 to 10 years' time.

Target groups with special safety requirements

The quantum-safe solutions are aimed specifically at industries with high data security requirements. These include financial service providers, public authorities and high-tech companies that work with sensitive patent rights or intellectual property. Organizations that do not rely on public cloud services and want to design their communication independently and securely also benefit. With these technologies, dacoso enables protection that meets the requirements of the next technological era.
