The looming threat of post-quantum computing is shaping warfare in the cyber domain, putting pressure on defense agencies to modernize systems and eliminate cryptographic risk. But preparing for post-quantum network cryptography demands careful planning to keep mission-critical systems online. Agencies need the ability to assess, modernize, and sustain quantum-resilient network security without disrupting operations.
Lumen’s Next Generation Network Cryptography (NGNC) framework enables agencies to configure cryptographic capabilities based on mission needs, risk priorities, and budget. Informed by discovery-led planning, NGNC provides a strategic approach to addressing current threats, preparing for post-quantum transitions, and delivering secure, scalable communications across complex government environments.
