Advanced protection with post-quantum digital signatures
Virtual Cable, developer of the UDS Enterprise platform, has adopted post-quantum digital signatures to strengthen the security of the core components of its solution.
Using the ML-DSA (Module-Lattice Digital Signature Algorithm) standard, approved by NIST (the US National Institute of Standards and Technology), UDS Enterprise ensures protection against future attacks powered by quantum computing.
This move places Virtual Cable among the first digital workplace software vendors to integrate post-quantum-resistant mechanisms, anticipating risks that could compromise corporate infrastructures.
Key benefits of ML-DSA in UDS Enterprise
The components of UDS Enterprise, created, signed, and distributed exclusively by Virtual Cable, are essential for the secure and automated operation of the system. Although they are not dynamically modified by the server or by users, the post-quantum digital signature ensures their absolute integrity, even in hybrid, multicloud, or distributed environments.
Strategic advantages include:
Guaranteed integrity
Components only run if their signature matches the public key embedded in the system. Any attempt at manipulation, alteration, or replacement is automatically blocked.
Post-quantum resistance
ML-DSA protects against attacks from both traditional computers and future quantum computers capable of breaking classical algorithms such as RSA or ECDSA.
International compliance
By following FIPS 204, the official NIST standard for quantum-resistant signatures, Virtual Cable aligns with global cybersecurity best practices.
Secure implementation
Built with Pure Rust and no external dependencies, the attack surface is minimized and the signing and verification processes gain portability and reliability.
Preparing the digital workplace for a quantum future
The adoption of post-quantum cryptography addresses the growing concern around the “harvest now, decrypt later” threat, where data encrypted today could be decrypted in the future using quantum computers. Sectors such as banking, industry, education, healthcare, and government are already leading the transition to quantum-safe algorithms.
With this implementation, Virtual Cable ensures that UDS Enterprise components:
• Are authentic and tamper-proof, regardless of their execution environment.
• Remain secure in the face of future advances in quantum computing.
• Add an extra layer of protection across hybrid, multicloud, or edge environments.
“Quantum computing is reshaping the cybersecurity landscape. We wanted to ensure that UDS Enterprise is ready for what’s coming. By adopting ML-DSA, we strengthen our customers’ security today and safeguard the integrity of their infrastructures for tomorrow,” says Javier González, Chief Technology Officer at Virtual Cable.
UDS Enterprise, ready for the security challenges of the coming years
With this update, UDS Enterprise reinforces its alignment with international cybersecurity standards, strengthening its commitment to protection, integrity, and reliability across its smart digital workplace solutions, which integrate desktop virtualization, virtual apps, and remote access to devices from a single console.
