QuaSiModO

QuantenSichere VPN-Module und -Operationsmodi

The advent of quantum computers is a threat to conventional cryptography which we use to encrypt our digital communication. The goal of this project is the development of a protocol suite for quantum-secure Virtual Private Networks.

QuaSiModO is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research under the programme "Selbstbestimmt und sicher in der digitalen Welt 2015 bis 2020" with a runtime from September 2019 until August 2022.
