QConnect (Quantum-Safe Virtual Private Network)

What

Q-VPN is QNu Labs' virtual private network solution using post-quantum cryptography to secure remote access and site-to-site connections. Traditional VPNs use IPsec or SSL/TLS with RSA or ECC key exchange - all quantum-vulnerable. Q-VPN replaces these with CRYSTALS-Kyber (FIPS 203) for key exchange and supports AES-256 for data encryption, providing quantum-resistant security for VPN tunnels. It integrates with Tropos QRNG for generating authentication credentials and session keys. For organizations with Armos QKD infrastructure, Q-VPN can leverage QKD keys for added security. The solution supports standard VPN use cases: remote workers accessing corporate networks, site-to-site connections between offices and data centers, secure cloud access, and IoT device secure communications. Q-VPN is compatible with existing network infrastructure and can replace or supplement existing VPN solutions.

Why

VPNs protect remote worker traffic, inter-office communications, and cloud access - critical infrastructure for modern distributed enterprises. Current VPN security is entirely dependent on RSA and ECC remaining unbroken. When quantum computers arrive, VPN tunnels become transparent to adversaries. Migrating to Q-VPN provides quantum-safe remote access before the threat materializes.

Impact

Remote work is permanent for many organizations - employees accessing sensitive data from home, contractors connecting from around the world, mobile workers using public WiFi. Q-VPN ensures these connections remain secure in the quantum era. For government agencies with classified remote access, defense contractors with distributed teams, financial institutions with work-from-anywhere policies, and healthcare organizations with HIPAA requirements, quantum-safe VPNs are essential infrastructure.

Use Cases

Corporate remote worker access to internal networks, site-to-site VPN between offices and data centers, secure cloud service access, government and military remote access, financial institution secure remote banking systems, healthcare provider secure telemedicine connections, IoT device secure management access
