Thales launches Luna 8 as AI and quantum computing put cryptography under pressure

The common thread AI and quantum computing create different risks, but both are increasing the importance of the cryptographic infrastructure underneath digital systems.

Quantum computing threatens the durability of the algorithms organizations depend on to protect that data and establish trust.

That helps explain why Thales is putting AI and post-quantum computing in the same conversation around Luna 8.

Competitors including Entrust, Utimaco and Crypto4A are also developing or shipping HSM technology with support for post-quantum cryptography.

“Luna 8 combines support for post-quantum cryptography with the flexibility organizations need to adapt as security requirements constantly evolve.”
