Lets have a discussion with regards to OSI physical and datalink layer transmission (signalling) technologies in the presence of quantum assisted crypt analyzers.
We can base our discussion on the advent of the Next generation Networks(NGN) such as 5G Standalone Architecture: 5GCore, 5G Edge, 5G NR and IP eXchange.
Discussion Questions:
------------------------
1. How are these networks going to handle quantum crypt analysis from classical perspective especially where the networks interconnect and interoperate?
2. While newer cryptology modules are being introduced, how likely are they in terms of speed to counter quantum technologies in the interconnect where key exchange handover happens?
3. NGN introduced Network Function Virtualization based on Software Defined Technologies using slices. How likely in terms of quantum that the actual Core Technologies in terms of configuration and Misconfiguration can be compromised to a point that the entire topology can be down affecting the entire ecosystem?
Lets discuss, I am still learning and ready to learn from the experts, where proper phrasing is needed please advise, I will gladly update. OSI L1/L2 as reference model will be a great start.
Quantum cryptanalysis poses a significant challenge to classical cryptographic systems due to its potential to break some widely used encryption algorithms. To mitigate this risk in network communication, classical networks can implement post-quantum cryptographic algorithms, which are resistant to quantum attacks. Additionally, network operators can employ hybrid encryption schemes that combine classical and quantum-resistant algorithms to ensure security. However, ensuring interoperability and security across interconnected networks will require careful design and coordination to address potential vulnerabilities.
