The Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT) entered into an agreement with Synergy Quantum India Private Ltd. to enhance cybersecurity preparedness against emerging quantum threats. The collaboration focuses on developing a specialised tool capable of scanning digital devices, identifying existing security mechanisms, and classifying cryptographic algorithms as either quantum-safe or vulnerable. As quantum computing advances, traditional encryption methods may become susceptible to attacks. This initiative aims to safeguard critical sectors such as defence, telecommunications, banking, and government systems by proactively strengthening encryption standards and improving national cybersecurity resilience in the evolving technological landscape.
