Quantum computing is an emerging form of computing technology that takes advantage of quantum mechanical phenomena to solve certain types of problem that are effectively impossible to solve on classical computers. Quantum Advantage will occur when quantum computers surpass today’s classical computers at which point they are expected to enable dramatic advances in areas such as chemistry, material sciences, finance and artificial intelligence, but at the same time they will also impact information security.

Drivers Quantum TapeDrive

Magnetic tape drives, which were invented more than 60 years ago, are used extensively today for archiving data, due to their low cost and minimal energy requirements. Tapes are also known for being highly secure, since they use a combination of symmetric and asymmetric encryption and also provide an airgap. However, at the current rate of progress in quantum computing, it is expected that asymmetric encryption may become insecure within the next 10-30 years. Since tape systems are often used to archive data for decades it’s important to begin implementing quantum computing safe cryptography now to provide clients sufficient time to migrate to this new technology before their data becomes vulnerable.

TapeDrive

In order to prepare for the impact that quantum computers are expected to have on data security, IBM Research has been developing cryptographic algorithms that are resistant to the potential security concerns posed by quantum computers. The jointly developed quantum computing safe algorithms are part of a lattice cryptography suite called CRYSTALS. The algorithms are based on the hardness of mathematical problems that have been studied since the 1980s and have not succumbed to any algorithmic attacks, either classical or quantum. CRYSTALS is developed in collaboration with several academic and commercial partners including ENS Lyon, Ruhr Universitaet Bochum, CWI and Radboud University. The CRYSTALS suite includes two quantum resistant cryptographic primitives - Kyber, a secure key encapsulation mechanism, and Dilithium, a secure digital signature algorithm. Both of these algorithms are candidates in the second round of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Post Quantum Cryptography standardization process.

Recently, IBM Research – Zurich in collaboration with IBM Tape Development in Tucson have prototyped and tested an enterprise class tape drive that implements Quantum Computing-Safe Encryption Technology. The new prototype IBM tape drive is based on an IBM TS1160 tape drive and uses both Kyber and Dillithium in combination with symmetric AES-256 encryption to enable the world’s first quantum computing safe tape drive. The new algorithms are implemented as part of the tape drive’s firmware and could be provided to customers as a firmware upgrade for existing tape drives and/or included in the firmware of future generations of tape drives. IBM tape drives were the first storage technology to provide built-in encryption starting with the TS1120 Enterprise Tape and once again IBM Tape R&D is leading the industry in preparation for the NIST quantum computing-safe standardization. In addition to encryption, tape provides a further layer of security via an airgap between the data stored on a cartridge and the outside world, i.e. data stored on a cartridge cannot be read or modified unless it is mounted in a tape drive. With the development of quantum computing-safe tape encryption technology, IBM Tape continues the legacy of tape leadership in security and encryption and reaffirms its long-term commitment to this critical part of modern storage infrastructure.
