“Thales’ solution is the first quantum-resistant smartcard in Europe to receive high-level security certification, underscoring its commitment to staying ahead of emerging cyber risks in the quantum era”, as announced by Thales.

Commented by the French Cybersecurity Agency (ANSSI):
“This first certification for a solution incorporating post-quantum cryptography reflects ANSSI’s commitment to supporting innovation, while upholding the highest cybersecurity standards. The joint work of Thales, CEA-Leti IT Security Evaluation Facility, and ANSSI is a strong signal that Europe is ready to lead the way in post-quantum security, enabling organisations and governments to deploy solutions that anticipate future risks, rather than waiting for quantum computers to become mainstream”, Franck Sadmi, Head of National Certification Center, French Cybersecurity Agency (ANSSI) said.
