ZeroTier has introduced ZeroTier Quantum, a networking platform that incorporates post-quantum cryptography to ensure long-term security. This software-defined platform meets the standards set by NIST and NSA CNSA 2.0, utilizing the ZeroTier Transport Protocol to embed hybrid FIPS-compliant post-quantum cryptography into the transport layer1. Built with memory-safe Rust, ZeroTier Quantum features an API-first design, allowing for seamless integration across various systems, including cloud, on-premises, edge, and embedded systems. The platform can operate in different configurations, including SaaS cloud, sovereign-gapped, and air-gapped environments. Targeted at defense and government applications, ZeroTier Quantum aims to provide a secure networking solution in the face of emerging quantum computing threats. The launch of this platform underscores the growing urgency for organizations to migrate to post-quantum cryptography, as highlighted by recent developments from the NSA, making it essential for practitioners to prioritize PQC planning to ensure the long-term security of their networks.
