Quantum Drop is a service that aims to get the most out of PQC algorithms for storing documents in Cloud Computing environments and sharing files securely… even in the face of the possible arrival of Quantum Computers.
This is not only being done by the U.S. government, and companies are also working on it. We have been working for years on applying quantum encryption to communications, and on projects to detect insecure software and protocols to quantum computers, to have information on what to change to Post-Quantum Encryption (PQC) algorithms, to Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) systems, or where to start applying Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNG).
In fact, the folks at Telefonica Tech are already doing these types of projects for many companies around the world that don’t want to wait for the wave of an eventual arrival of Quantum Computers to catch up with them without a clear strategy of what is at risk, and what the plan is to change everything.

Internally for us it had other code names, and was several projects in parallel that have become Quantum Drop, where a file is synchronized with the cloud using communications with PQE algorithms, stored encrypted with PQE, and shared with recipient using encryption key exchange.
Now the project is in private beta, and we are looking for Beta Testers who want to be part of the team to give feedback on the solution, so if you want to sign up you can do it now on the Quantum Drop website at Tu.com.
We know that Quantum Computers have a while to go, but from now on you will see how all the products we launch at Tu.Com and Telefónica will be quantum proofread, to make sure that we are building technology that is gradually ready to live with a world of quantum computing that we have been expecting for some time, but for which we are not yet fully prepared.
If you want to start learning about these technologies and how they apply to the digital world we live in, sign up for the Quantum Drop private beta… and to the next ones we will be launching, you will see that there will be many more.
