Make the world
quantum safe

Secure your enterprise for the quantum era

Quantum computers are scaling rapidly. Soon, they will be powerful enough to solve previously unsolvable problems. This opportunity comes with a global challenge: quantum computers will be able to break some of the most widely-used security protocols in the world.


“Harvest now, decrypt later” attacks could enable adversaries to steal encrypted files and store them until more advanced quantum computers emerge. All data — past, present, and future — that is not protected using quantum-safe security is now a liability.

Quantum-safe software solutions

IBM Quantum Safe™ technology is a comprehensive set of tools, capabilities, and approaches for securing your enterprise for the quantum future. Use IBM Quantum Safe technology to replace at-risk cryptography and maintain ongoing visibility and control over your entire cybersecurity posture.
