Quantum Safe Storage use cases

Backup

A perfect use case for the QSS is backup. Specific capbabilities needed for backup are a core part of a proper backup policy. Characteristics of QSS that makle backups secure, scalable, efficient and sustainable are:

• physical storage devices are always append. The lowest level of the storage devices, ZDB's, are storage engines that work by design as an always append storage device.
• easy provision of these ZDB's makes them almost like old fashioned tape devices that you have on a rotary schedule. Having this capability make is very visible and possible to use, store and phase out stored data in a way that is auditable and can be made very transparant
