Programmes Security CybersecurityThe European Commission has published a Recommendation on Post-Quantum Cryptography to encourage Member States to develop and implement a coordinated approach towards post-quantum cryptography.
Quantum technologies can bring many economic and societal benefits, but advances in quantum computing are expected to also make it easier for malicious actors to access sensitive data.
Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) is one of the solutions to continue to protect communications for the security of our citizens, societies, economies and the EU's digital single market. PQC is based on mathematical problems that are difficult even for quantum computers to solve. As a software-based solution, it is compatible with existing infrastructures in several sectors, and can thus be deployed relatively swiftly.
The recommendation will help Member States develop a consistent strategy to migrate towards more secure ways of protecting their digital infrastructures, promoting interoperability between countries, and allowing seamlessly functioning systems and services across borders.
Stakeholders planning to submit project proposals on PQC in the future should demonstrate awareness with the content of this recommendation.

GenderSAFE, funded by Horizon Europe under call topic HORIZON-WIDERA-2023-ERA-01-09, is a project that advances efforts to implement a zero-tolerance approach to gender-based violence in higher education and research in the European Research Area. This overall objective will be achieved through a five-fold strategy. The project exists of a European-wide consortium of six partners. Read more about the GenderSAFE’s five-fold strategy, the role of the Belgian partner Yellow Window and the latest outputs of the project in this testimonial.
