Discover the innovative solutions developed within
the PQ-REACT project, designed to smooth and
secure the transition to post-quantum cryptography
The PQ-REACT Key Exploitable Results (KERs) list includes seven key outputs with strong potential for real-world
application, commercialisation, and further research.
They include tools, frameworks, algorithms, and methodologies that smooth and secure the transition to the postquantum world.
Ker #1
Migration Framework
A PQC migration framework is a structured methodology that helps organisations
transition from classical cryptography (RSA, ECC) to quantum-resistant algorithms.
Target Market / End-Users: Governments, Critical Infrastructure Operators,
Regulated Industries and Technology Providers
Owner: INDRA
Ker #2
PQC Algorithm Catalogue
The Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Algorithm Catalogue is a structured
repository that compiles, evaluates, and maintains detailed information on
cryptographic algorithms designed to resist quantum-computer attacks.
Target Market / End-Users: Governments, Critical Infrastructure Operators,
Regulated Industries and Technology Providers
Owner: INDRA
Ker #3
Quantum Processing Unit
Quantum Processing Unit (QPU)
hosted by IBM near Stuttgart for the dedicated
usage by Fraunhofer and partners.
Target Market / End-Users: Research and Development
Owner: Fraunhofer
Ker #4
PQC for Smart Grids
Application of Quantum Resistant Crypto to Smart Grid deployments
Target Market / End-Users: Electricity Utilities and Smart Meters Manufacturers
Owner: INDRA
Ker #5
QKD Enablers for 5G
A QUJATA-based software framework integrating IPsec with on-demand QKD and
PQC modes, running over a 5G network simulator to benchmark cryptographic
performance and support evolution to quantum-safe security strategies
Target Market / End-Users: Telco operators looking to future-proof 5G security,
R&D and testbed teams validating quantum-safe protocols, Network equipment
vendors evaluating integration of quantum cryptography, Critical-infrastructure
sectors (finance, government, utilities) requiring advanced key-exchange capabilities
Owner: Telefonica
Ker #6
PQC Enablers Ledgers
A Quantum-Resistant Distributed Ledger (QRL) prototype enabling secure,
efficient Service Level Agreement (SLA) management across end-to-end network
slicing, enhanced with PQC cryptographic primitives and crypto-agility.
Target Market / End-Users: Telecom operators, critical infrastructure
providers (energy, healthcare, transport), SMEs/start-ups in blockchain,
and research institutions.
Owner: NCSRD
Ker #7
PQ-REACT Quantum Interfaces and Enablers
IKE-less IPsec implementation
Target Market / End-Users: elecom Operators, Government/Defence, Critical
Infrastructure, Network Manufacturers, Research Labs
Owner: UPM
