AES is the encryption algorithm that protects most of the world's digital data today. Adopted by NIST in 2001, it processes data in 128-bit chunks using keys of 128, 192, or 256 bits. Here's what matters for quantum security: a quantum computer using Grover's algorithm can search through keys twice as fast as regular computers. That means AES-256 gives you 128-bit security in the quantum age, while AES-128 drops to 64-bit security. The fix is simple - use AES-256. QNu Labs builds this into our security platform because AES isn't going away, it just needs proper key management from quantum sources like our Tropos QRNG.
Over 90% of encrypted data uses AES today. Unlike RSA and ECC which quantum computers will completely break, AES survives if you double the key length. It's fast, proven, and hardware-accelerated in modern processors.
AES remains your go-to for bulk data encryption in the quantum era. Combined with quantum-safe key distribution from QKD or post-quantum key exchange, it protects everything from VPN traffic to database encryption.
