A Multi-Layered Quantum-Resistant Algorithms Based Approach to Mitigate Emerging Threats in ISP Cybersecurity

The Internet Service Providers (ISP), and their structures are at high risk with the growing quantity and complexity of cyber threats. The growth of quantum computing further elevates the risks and challenges especially for the conventional cryptographic standards. This manuscript proposes a multi-layered suite of quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms that can be proficiently integrated into ISP networks to secure against conventional cyber threats as well as prevent the impending quantum-enabled cyberattacks. This work emphasizes the importance of transitioning to quantum-resistant cryptography to ensure the longevity of ISP cybersecurity measures in the face of emerging quantum threats.
