# Designed for the quantum transition

Post-quantum readiness is not a feature. It is a foundation.

## Post-quantum signature schemes (Dilithium-5)

Security designed to withstand future quantum attacks.

* Infrastructure remains secure as cryptographic standards evolve
* Systems deployed today will not become obsolete tomorrow
* Digital trust survives the quantum transition

## Crypto-agile architecture

Security that can evolve without rebuilding your infrastructure.

* Cryptographic algorithms can be upgraded as standards change
* No costly infrastructure redesign
* Systems remain adaptable to future threats

## Protection against harvest-now, decrypt-later

Encrypted data stolen today may be broken in future.

* Sensitive data remains protected long-term
* Intellectual property and strategic information stay secure
* Attackers cannot exploit stored encrypted data later

## Long-term data confidentiality

Protection designed for decades-long operational environments.

* Critical infrastructure remains trustworthy over time
* Long-lived data stays secure
* Alignment with emerging security standards

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.naorisquantumprotocol.com/introduction/designed-for-the-quantum-transition.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
