Abstract

Post quantum secure network communication is provided. The process comprises sending, by a client in a first computing cluster, an outbound message to a quantum safe cryptographic (QSC) proxy server in the first computing cluster, wherein the outbound message is addressed to a target server in a second computing cluster. The QSC proxy server initiates a QSC transport layer security (TLS) connection with an ingress controller in the second computing cluster, wherein the ingress controller comprises a QSC algorithm. The QSC proxy server transfers the message to the ingress controller via the QSC TLS connection, and the ingress controller routes the message to the target server in the second computing cluster via a non-QSC connection.
