Google Cloud Launches Quantum-Safe Digital Signatures in KMS
/ 1 min read
🔐✨ Google Cloud introduces quantum-safe digital signatures to enhance cryptographic security. In response to the potential threats posed by quantum computing to public-key cryptography, Google Cloud has launched quantum-safe digital signatures in its Key Management Service (Cloud KMS), utilizing NIST-standardized algorithms. This initiative allows customers to cryptographically sign data and validate signatures with enhanced security against future quantum attacks. Google has been proactive in adopting post-quantum cryptography (PQC) since 2016 and is committed to supporting the migration to quantum-resistant systems. The new offerings include ML-DSA-65 and SLH-DSA-SHA2-128S signatures, with plans to adapt to evolving standards in the field. Google emphasizes the importance of securing digital signatures now to protect against future vulnerabilities.
