With KEMAC, an encapsulated session key can only be decapsulated if all the rights defined at the time of encapsulation are respected. This approach enables companies to manage access efficiently: while IT departments define access to directories, KEMAC ensures granular control over who is authorized to decrypt data.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more,<strong>\u00a0since data encrypted today can be decrypted later (ANSSI, BSI), Cosmian&#8217;s KEMAC specification directly integrates PQ\/T hybridization, combining pre-quantum and post-quantum protection for lasting security.<\/strong>\u00a0The ETSI standard supporting Cosmian covercrypt guarantees future-proof encryption by including practical functions for dynamic access policy management, such as efficient user revocation and rights updating.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;At Cosmian, our mission is to advance cryptographic security with practical and deployable solutions,&#8221;<\/em>\u00a0said\u00a0<strong>David Pointcheval<\/strong><strong>, Chief Scientific Officer at Cosmian<\/strong>.\u00a0<em>&#8220;With the ETSI standardization of our KEMAC approach, we are taking a significant step towards scalable post-quantum security for enterprises worldwide.&#8221;<\/em>Resources &amp; Further Information<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Cosmian<\/strong><br \/>Since 2018, Cosmian has been at the forefront of next-generation cryptography, delivering cutting-edge solutions for securing the public cloud and confidential AI.
