Preparing Today’s Storage for Tomorrow’s Threats
Cybersecurity is at a turning point. While quantum computing promises breakthrough innovation, it also poses a serious threat to today’s encryption standards. For the channel, this means a proactive shift is needed, especially at the storage layer.
- Quantum computers could crack RSA and ECC encryption
- “Harvest now, decrypt later” threats are already underway
- Critical data stored today may be vulnerable tomorrow
Regulatory bodies like NIST and the NSA have already begun the transition to quantum-safe cryptographic standards. This isn’t a distant-future scenario – it’s an urgent roadmap. And NetApp is stepping up with real-world, forward-looking solutions.
NetApp’s Quantum-Safe Strategy
NetApp is among the first storage vendors actively integrating post-quantum cryptography (PQC) into its data protection architecture, helping partners and customers future-proof against quantum-scale threats.
NetApp’s hybrid multi-cloud architecture is designed with quantum resilience in mind. The latest updates introduce NIST-recommended PQC algorithms for safeguarding key exchanges and critical data flows, laying the groundwork for a smooth transition to post-quantum security.
With NetApp, customers can:
- Start their journey to quantum-safe data protection
- Safeguard key exchanges with NIST-recommended PQC
- Future-proof their hybrid multi-cloud environments
