Post-Quantum QKD Key Management with QKDLite

QKDLite, by pQCee, is a set of middleware modules that are designed for businesses to connect easily and securely to QKD infrastructures with minimal changes to the applications. It abstracts away the protocol complexities for integrating with technical standards such as ETSI QKD 014, PKCS#11, RFC8784, FIPS 197, and PCI-DSS to present a unified interface that focuses on secure key generation and management.

Why QKDLite?

Overcoming the limitations of QKD. Supplementing the weaknesses of PQC.

Seamless connectivity

Build-in modules already connect to standards-based ETSI QKD 014 QKD and PKCS#11 HSMs

Inbuilt Key Management

Policy-based control of keys (creation, deletion, renewals, synchronization) across different sites

Virtual QKD extension

Crypto-agile combination of QKD and PQC with High Availability configuration
