What Is a Quantum-Safe Hybrid Digital Certificate?

Sectigo’s Tim Callan, Jason Soroko and Alan Grau break down what quantum safe hybrid TLS certificates are and how they can help to prepare businesses for quantum-safe cryptography. Quantum computing is poised to disrupt the technological world as we know it. And although quantum computing — and all of the advantages it offers — is still realistically years away, businesses and organizations need to prepare themselves for its inevitable downside: broken cryptosystems.

Quantum computers will break our existing asymmetric cryptosystem — something that cybercriminals will be ready and eager to take advantage of. This is why it’ll be necessary to migrate your existing IT and cryptosystems to their quantum-resistant or quantum-safe equivalents.

But, of course, upgrading to post-quantum cryptographic (PQC) systems and infrastructure takes time and resources. So, one of the ways to help future proof your cyber security through this process is through the use of hybrid digital certificates such as a hybrid TLS certificate.
