QShield's successful 72-hour endurance run validates the operational stability of software-only post-quantum cryptography on standard Linux infrastructure. By utilizing NIST-standardized ML-KEM and ML-DSA algorithms, this solution demonstrates a viable pathway for organizations to mitigate future quantum decryption risks without requiring hardware upgrades. This milestone confirms that practical migration tools for post-quantum security are ready for continuous production environments.
QShield ran for 72 hours with post-quantum encryption, zero failures

QShield completed a 72-hour run with software-only, asymmetric cryptography, recording zero failures.
Qtonic Quantum’s QShield completed a 72-hour endurance run of its post-quantum encryption software with a perfect record: 4,107 successful checks and zero failures, the company says. The software-only solution, designed to protect packet-level traffic, ran continuously on standard Linux hosts without requiring new hardware. QShield utilizes ML-KEM-1024 and ML-DSA-87, the highest parameter sets defined by NIST’s post-quantum standards…
