QNu Labs, a startup selected by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) under the National Quantum Mission (NQM), has introduced the world’s first-of-its-kind platform, ‘QShield,’ designed to streamline cryptography management across all environments, including, cloud, on-premises, or hybrid. ‘QShield’ enables enterprises to secure their critical infrastructure at scale.

The QShield platform integrates QNu’s proprietary technologies, including, quantum key distribution (Armos), quantum random number generator (Tropos), quantum hardware security module (QHSM), and NIST-compliant post-quantum cryptography (PQC), offering a comprehensive solution to protect sensitive data both in transit and at rest.

QShield offers a suite of services including Qosmos for key generation, QConnect for secure connectivity, QVerse for protected collaboration, QSFS for encrypted file storage and sharing, and QVault for secure key management.

With centralised management, adaptable deployment models, and seamless integration with third-party services, QShield enables enterprises to quantum-safe their mission-critical and diverse infrastructures, protecting their data today while preparing them for a secure quantum future.
