Quantum-safe networks demo at AWS
At the newly opened AWS Innovation Hub in Singapore, LuxQuanta and evolutionQ are showcasing a live demonstration of a working quantum-safe network in a financial institution use case, protecting its data centre with an AWS Direct Connect facility.
The solution protects against both today's threats and tomorrow's quantum attacks. A practical and interactive demonstration that evidences the practicality and efficiency of quantum-safe solutions in real environments. Current geopolitical tensions and technological global races have accelerated the investments and development timelines, and experts estimate that sufficiently powerful quantum computers could break current encryption standards within the next decade.
Meanwhile, adversaries are already collecting encrypted data under "Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" strategies, storing it now and awaiting technology to decrypt it. This demonstration at the AWS Innovation Hub shows a practical, deployable system that protects a realistic scenario. The demo aims to secure a financial institution's critical data link between its data centre and AWS Direct Connect facilities. The demonstration showcases a multi-layered security approach that combines a future-proof layer of quantum key distribution with post-quantum encryption protocols and key management solutions.
The LuxQuanta–evolutionQ collaboration at the AWS Innovation Hub represents a proof of concept for the next stage of global cybersecurity within a well-established operator environment such as AWS. In line with the already published evidence of concept, where different AWS Direct Connect facilities are secured using LuxQuanta devices, this demonstration shows a practical use case for the financial and banking sector within the AWS environment.
The AWS Innovation Hub in Singapore serves as an executive-grade environment for co-creating solutions within the AWS partner ecosystem. It's designed to accelerate digital and AI transformation across Asia-Pacific. LuxQuanta's participation establishes the quantum-safe security pillar in this ecosystem, demonstrating how QKD and PQC converge to create hybrid cryptography that's resilient against both current and quantum-era threats. This builds on previous successful demonstrations linking AWS Direct Connect facilities with LuxQuanta technology, proving the concept at scale within production-grade infrastructure.
The LuxQuanta-evolutionQ demonstration at AWS Innovation Hub shows that quantum-safe networking is available for deployment today, easily integrating with existing infrastructure and working with the cloud platforms your business already relies on, providing a clear migration path as part of a comprehensive quantum-readiness strategy.
