SSH Communications Security announced the release of version 3.0 of its quantum-safe NQX communications solution. The new version is more powerful, supports the latest quantum-safe encryption algorithms, and enables customers to manage large numbers of connections between networks, data centers, and factories. The NQX software meets the needs of national security agencies and other organizations as they move vast amounts of data between data centers, industrial environments, branch offices and networks in a quantum-secure fashion.

Unlike many competing products, NQX transmits data at high rates even when super secure quantum-safe connections are turned on. The main features of NQX 3.0 are: Quantum-safe key exchange with support for the latest post-quantum cryptography (PQC) key agreement algorithms FrodoKEM and Kyber. Crypto agile design ensures that the latest PQC algorithms can be easily taken into use as they evolve.

The solution uses the hybrid approach where classical and quantum-safe algorithms work both in parallel and together. Ethernet support up to 100Gbps for data links between data centers. Modernized management system for more efficient operations of even the most complex network topologies.
