"These complementary technologies can be deployed together across high-speed optical networks."

Terry Cronin, Vice President, Business Development at Toshiba International Corporation

Following the announcement that Quantum Corridor, Ciena, and Toshiba have demonstrated Ciena’s WaveLogic 6 Extreme (WL6e) 1.6 Tb/s NIST-certified PQC algorithms with Toshiba’s QKD technology on Quantum Corridor’s live commercial network in the Midwest United States, Terry Cronin, Vice President, Business Development at Toshiba International Corporation, provided this exclusive comment:

As organizations upgrade their communications infrastructure, these complementary technologies can be deployed together across high-speed optical networks, enabling a practical and scalable path to quantum-safe and secured communications. This layered approach allows enterprises, governments, and critical infrastructure operators to protect their most sensitive information against both current cyber threats and future quantum-enabled attacks, while helping ensure the confidentiality and integrity of mission-critical communications.
