Thales and Samsung Team Up for Quantum Security

At this year’s CES 2026, Thales unveiled a secure operating system (OS) that powers Samsung Electronics’ newly awarded security chip. This collaboration has already earned accolades, as the chip bagged the ‘Best Cybersecurity Innovation’ award, thanks to its path-breaking use of post-quantum cryptography (PQC). This cutting-edge technology promises to protect devices against the emerging threats from quantum computing—a timely innovation in a landscape where digital security is paramount.

The introduction of Thales’ OS and its quantum-resistant capabilities signals a leap forward in safeguarding our digital lives. As we edge closer to a world where quantum computers might unravel current encryption technologies, innovations like these become crucial.

Quantum-Proofing Our Digital Future

This remarkable partnership with Samsung demonstrates significant progress as the chip seamlessly blends Thales’ secure OS with advanced cryptographic solutions. It’s a significant leap towards securing our connected world against both today’s threats and tomorrow’s uncertainties.

Thales points out an alarming tactic used by cyber attackers: “harvest now, decrypt later.” The idea here is that they’re collecting encrypted data today, with plans to decode it as quantum tech evolves. This is why enhancing security is not just futuristic—it is imperative now.

• Quantum-resistant encryption and authentication
• Optimal performance for cryptographic functions in constrained environments
• Steady protection against “harvest now, decrypt later” threats

Recognizing the importance of these features, Eva Rudin from Thales praises the collaboration with Samsung for pioneering robust security without draining battery life, highlighting a need for post-quantum security across all tech gadgets.
