Sparkle Launches NaaS Solution with Quantum-Safe over Internet

Sparkle announced the pre-order launch of its Quantum Safe over Internet (QSI) service. This is the first product in its Network as a Service (NaaS) suite which soon will include additional use cases.

Establishing quantum-secure connections represents a crucial step forward in communications security. This solution, already tested on an international VPN between Italy and Germany and on Sparkle's metropolitan fiber-optic network in Athens, allows companies to benefit from MEF-compliant on-demand Internet access protected by post-quantum encryption.

With the Network as a Service approach, customers will have the opportunity to use the service through a dedicated portal or via API, in an agile, flexible, and fully automated way. The QSI service, currently available for pre-order at points of presence in Paris, London, and Athens, will enable customers to access Sparkle’s network, establish secure connections between their offices, and utilize cloud resources with assurance against quantum attacks.

“In a rapidly evolving world, increasingly interconnected and supported by artificial intelligence, digital experience, data certification, and security are continuously challenged,” said Daniele Mancuso, Chief of Marketing & Product Management at Sparkle. “Quantum-Safe over Internet combines NaaS experience with post-quantum encryption, positioning Sparkle at the forefront of protecting communications against the risks associated with the advent of quantum computing.”
