Quantum Xchange’s Phio TX gains EU cybersecurity certification

Quantum XChange reports that Phio TX version 4.5.6 is the first post-quantum cryptographic management platform to earn European Union Cybersecurity Certification (EUCC) at Evaluation Assurance Level 2 (EAL2), a distinction no other platform currently holds. The EAL2 certification confirms methodical testing and independent verification against defined security requirements under the Common Criteria framework, providing added confidence for organizations handling sensitive data.

“EUCC certification is an important milestone for Quantum XChange and for customers that require trusted, independently validated cybersecurity solutions,” said Eddy Zervigon, CEO of Quantum XChange. With both FIPS validation and EUCC certification, Phio TX simplifies compliance for organizations operating in regulated European and global networks.

Phio TX Achieves First EU Cybersecurity Certification for Post-Quantum Security

Phio TX version 4.5.6 has achieved EUCC certification, simplifying security reviews and procurement processes for entities operating in regulated markets by providing third-party assurance of robust cybersecurity practices. The EUCC certification awarded to Phio TX demonstrates that the platform has met internationally recognized security standards under the Common Criteria framework. This achievement is particularly significant given the increasing importance of EUCC for enterprises, telecommunications providers, financial institutions, critical infrastructure operators and government agencies.

Jacinto Cavestany, CEO at Evolutio, stated, “Operating in highly regulated markets means we need security solutions that are not only technically advanced, but also independently validated against recognized standards.” “Quantum XChange’s EUCC validation gives us greater confidence in Phio TX as we advance our quantum-safe strategy, support compliance obligations across EU jurisdictions, and protect the sovereignty of sensitive data across a highly distributed environment.” Phio TX employs a crypto-agile architecture designed to separate key generation and delivery from data transmission, strengthening existing encryption infrastructure. This approach enables a smooth migration to post-quantum cryptography standards without requiring costly and disruptive system-wide upgrades. Cybersecurity information for the certified product, including secure-use guidance and vulnerability reporting, is available on the Quantum XChange website.

With Phio TX, Quantum XChange is the only vendor to offer both FIPS validation and EUCC certification for a post-quantum cryptography solution, giving organizations unmatched assurance as they prepare for the post-quantum era.

Rusty is a quantum science nerd. He's been into academic science all his life, but spent his formative years doing less academic things. Now he turns his attention to write about his passion, the quantum realm. He loves all things Quantum Physics especially. Rusty likes the more esoteric side of Quantum Computing and the Quantum world. Everything from Quantum Entanglement to Quantum Physics. Rusty thinks that we are in the 1950s quantum equivalent of the classical computing world. While other quantum journalists focus on IBM's latest chip or which startup just raised $50 million, Rusty's over here writing 3,000-word deep dives on whether quantum entanglement might explain why you sometimes think about someone right before they text you. (Spoiler: it doesn't, but the exploration is fascinating)
