PQC Validator: Validating Post-Quantum Readiness in Cloud-Native 5G Core Networks
Lakshya Chopra, Vipin Kumar Rathi
5G Core networks are entering a decisive phase of post-quantum (PQ) migration: operators and vendors are beginning to advertise PQ-TLS 1.3, PQ-IPsec, and hybrid KEM support across…
Merkle Tree Certificate Post-Quantum PKI for Kubernetes and Cloud-Native 5G/B5G Core
Lakshya Chopra, Vipin Kumar Rathi
Post-quantum signature schemes such as ML-DSA-65 produce signatures of 3,309 bytes and public keys of 1,952 bytes over 50 times larger than classical Ed25519. In TLS-authenticated…
Post-Quantum Identity-Based TLS for 5G Service-Based Architecture and Cloud-Native Infrastructure
Vipin Kumar Rathi, Lakshya Chopra, Nikhil Kumar Rajput
Cloud-native application platforms and latency-sensitive systems such as 5G Core networks rely heavily on certificate-based Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and mutual TLS to secure…
QORE : Quantum Secure 5G/B5G Core
Vipin Rathi, Lakshya Chopra, Rudraksh Rawal +4
Quantum computing is reshaping the security landscape of modern telecommunications. The cryptographic foundations that secure todays 5G systems, including RSA, Elliptic Curve Crypt…
Q-RAN: Quantum-Resilient O-RAN Architecture
Vipin Rathi, Lakshya Chopra, Madhav Agarwal +6
The telecommunications industry faces a dual transformation: the architectural shift toward Open Radio Access Networks (O-RAN) and the emerging threat from quantum computing. O-RAN…
