The UAE Cyber Security Council hosted GISEC Global 2025, featuring groundbreaking discussions on quantum-secure infrastructure and cybersecurity leadership. A key highlight was the participation of ID Quantique, a leader in quantum-safe encryption, signaling major advancements in quantum-resistant cryptography.

You Should Know: Quantum Security & Practical Cyber Commands

Quantum computing poses a threat to traditional encryption (RSA, ECC). Here are critical cybersecurity measures and commands to prepare for post-quantum cryptography (PQC):

1. Linux Commands for Quantum-Resistant Key Generation

 Generate a quantum-resistant key using OpenSSL (for testing) 
openssl genpkey -algorithm x25519 -out quantum_key.pem

Check encryption strength 
openssl pkey -in quantum_key.pem -text -noout

Secure file encryption using AES-256 (quantum-resistant symmetric encryption) 
openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -salt -in secret.txt -out encrypted.enc -kfile quantum_key.pem 

2. Windows PowerShell: Enforcing PQC Standards

 Verify TLS 1.3 (quantum-resistant protocols) 
Get-TlsCipherSuite | Where-Object { $_.Name -like "TLS_AES" }

Enable strong encryption for SMB (Windows security) 
Set-SmbServerConfiguration -EncryptData $true -Force 

3. Network Security: Detecting Quantum Vulnerabilities

 Scan for weak cryptographic protocols using Nmap 
nmap --script ssl-enum-ciphers -p 443 target.com

Check for SHA-1 usage (vulnerable to quantum attacks) 
openssl s_client -connect target.com:443 | openssl x509 -noout -text | grep "Signature Algorithm" 

4. Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Testing with OpenQuantumSafe

 Clone and test PQC algorithms 
git clone https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/liboqs.git 
cd liboqs 
mkdir build && cd build 
cmake .. && make 
./tests/test_kem 

What Undercode Say

The shift to quantum-resistant encryption is inevitable. Organizations must:
– Adopt hybrid encryption (combining classical & PQC).
– Audit legacy systems for quantum vulnerabilities.
– Train cybersecurity teams in quantum risk mitigation.

Prediction

By 2030, quantum attacks will break traditional encryption. Early adopters of quantum-safe cryptography will dominate cyber resilience.

Expected Output:

  • Quantum-secure keys generated.
  • Weak encryption protocols identified.
  • Post-quantum algorithms tested.
