What Is NIST? Its Mission and Its Role in the Post-Quantum Cryptography Transition
Introduction As digital systems become more interconnected and long-lived, cryptography has shifted from being a purely technical concern to a matter of national infrastructure and global trust. One organization has played a central role in shaping how cryptography is standardized and adopted worldwide: National Institute of Standards and Technology, commonly known as NIST. In…

Are companies ready for post quantum cryptography in 2026
In early 2026, many organizations are aware of post quantum cryptography, but most are not fully transitioned. The common situation is: planning has started, pilots are happening, and inventories are being built, while broad production rollout is still limited to specific parts of the stack like web traffic at large CDNs or selected cloud…

Quantum-Safe API Architecture Designing APIs Resistant to Quantum Computing Threats
Introduction: Why Quantum-Safe APIs Matter The rapid progress of quantum computing represents a structural threat to today’s digital security. Most modern APIs rely directly or indirectly on classical public-key cryptography such as RSA and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). These systems are secure against classical computers but become fundamentally vulnerable once sufficiently powerful quantum computers…

Snifferless Stream Protocol A Non-Traceable Data Transmission Architecture for Ultra-Sensitive Communication
In a world where deep packet inspection (DPI), traffic fingerprinting, and behavioral analytics continuously evolve, traditional encryption is no longer sufficient to guarantee operational secrecy. Encryption protects content but it does not necessarily conceal metadata, structure, or transmission patterns. The Snifferless Stream Protocol introduces a different paradigm: not merely encrypting data, but eliminating recognizable…

Ghost Code Processes That No Longer Exist Yet Still Run
Introduction In operating systems, death is not always final. A process may terminate its execution, release most of its resources, and yet continue to “exist” in a suspended, ghost-like state. These so-called zombie processes are not active in the traditional sense they do not consume CPU cycles or execute instructions but they remain recorded…
