IDEMIA and KT Deploy Quantum-Resistant SIMs Supporting Dual NIST and KpqC Algorithms for South Korean Military Networks
TL;DRSouth Korea's military is getting quantum-resistant SIM cards using new encryption standards.
Why it matters: Quantum computers could crack current encryption; this protects critical military infrastructure from future threats.
IDEMIA Secure Transactions and KT Corporation are deploying quantum-resistant SIMs in South Korea's military networks, supporting both NIST and Korean Post-Quantum Cryptography (KpqC) algorithms. This initiative, part of South Korea's 2026 Post-Quantum Cryptography Pilot…
