Description

Q-FENCE (Securing Tomorrow’s Digital Infrastructure with Quantum-Resistant Cryptography) is a Horizon Europe project. This project is a transformative initiative aimed at securing tomorrow’s digital infrastructure with quantum-resistant cryptography. In response to the rising threats posed by the evolving quantum computers, this project develops a robust hybrid framework integrating classical, quantum, and post-quantum cryptographic techniques. Utilizing innovative approaches such as Ring-LWE, Module-LWE, Quantum Random Number Generators, and hardware-accelerated primitives, the project establishes a dual-layer security model that fortifies data protection across diverse infrastructures. Leveraging hardware-accelerated primitives and energy-efficient protocols, this project ensures quantum resilience while addressing critical challenges such as seamless integration with legacy systems, regulatory compliance, and scalable deployment.
