Cloudflare Advances Industry\u2019s First Cloud-Native Quantum-Safe Zero Trust Solution<\/b><\/p>\n

Sets a new industry standard with the only quantum-ready zero trust network access solution with broader protocol support coming mid-2025<\/i><\/p>\n

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–Cloudflare, Inc.<\/a> (NYSE: NET), the leading connectivity cloud company, today announced that it is expanding end-to-end support for post-quantum cryptography<\/a> to its Zero Trust Network Access solution. Available immediately, organizations can securely route communications from web browsers to corporate web applications to gain immediate, end-to-end quantum-safe connectivity. By mid-2025, Cloudflare will extend this support to include all IP protocols, significantly broadening compatibility across most corporate applications and devices. With this, organizations will be able to rely on Cloudflare to transition their Internet communications between users, devices, and applications to post-quantum cryptography without the complexity of individually upgrading each corporate application or system.\n<\/p>\n

\nToday encryption is used to keep online data protected\u2014everything from personal messages, to financial information, to customer data\u2014and anything that people and organizations would want to keep safe from hackers. As quantum computers move closer to production, that data is at risk of being unlocked, breaking current encryption methods and potentially exposing data that was once secured. Conventional cryptographic algorithms used across the Internet securing everything from major financial organizations and healthcare providers to government agencies and consumer smart devices, are vulnerable to post-quantum attacks.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) even made a landmark announcement<\/a> to phase out conventional cryptographic algorithms and to adopt post-quantum cryptography by 2030, as experts now estimate significant risks could emerge in as little as five years. There is an urgent need to adopt post-quantum cryptography, and Cloudflare has led the industry by contributing to the creation of industry standards and making post-quantum security free, by default<\/a>, for all of its customers.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cCloudflare has long committed to making post-quantum security the new baseline for Internet security, delivering it to all customers so we can bolster defenses against future quantum threats. Now, we\u2019re offering that protection built directly into our Zero Trust solutions,\u201d said Matthew Prince, co-founder and CEO at Cloudflare. \u201cWe want every Cloudflare customer to have a clear path to quantum safety, and we are already working with some of the most innovative banks, ISPs, and governments around the world as they begin their journeys to quantum security. We will continue to make advanced cryptography accessible to everyone, at no cost, in all of our products.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

Since 2017<\/a>, Cloudflare has been at the forefront of researching<\/a>, developing<\/a>, and standardizing<\/a> post-quantum cryptography. Today, over 35 percent<\/a> of the human-generated traffic connecting to Cloudflare’s global network benefits from post-quantum protection. Even in a future where quantum computing could compromise conventional cryptography, Cloudflare’s quantum-safe Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) solutions are designed to protect data as it travels over the public Internet. With this announcement, Cloudflare\u2019s Zero Trust Platform will enable organizations to:\n<\/p>\n
