Cisco, Fortinet, Nokia join Singtel in quantum security initiative

The government tasked Singtel to develop the first QSN by mid-2024.

Singtel inked three Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) with Cisco, Fortinet, and Nokia to provide enterprises with quantum security solutions through its Quantum Safe Network (QSN).

The solutions utilise quantum key distribution from Singtel’s QSN and can be easily integrated into enterprises' existing network and security infrastructure.

As part of the partnership, enterprises can utilise Cisco’s routing platform, Fortinet's firewalls, and Nokia's optical devices to protect themselves against advanced cyber threats. 

The collaboration is a national strategic initiative to fortify Singapore's resilience against quantum threats in the next decade.

Singtel is currently working with government agencies such as HTX (Home Team Science and Technology Agency) to develop and test quantum-safe network use cases.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
