Quantum-safe network security provider Quantum XChange has received European Union Cybersecurity Certification (EUCC) for its PhioTX-V cryptographic management software (version 4.5.6). With this approval, Phio TX becomes the first post-quantum cryptography (PQC) management platform to hold both EUCC certification and U.S. Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) validation.

| Issuing & Oversight Bodies | DEKRA Testing and Certification S.A.U. (NANDO ID 3095) | Overseen by Spain’s Centro Criptológico Nacional; valid Nov 10, 2026 to Nov 9, 2031. |
| Certified Architecture | Software-only virtual Key Management Entity (KME) | Delivers distributed symmetric keys via ETSI GS QKD 014 and Cisco SKIP APIs. |
| Cryptographic Protection | Multi-PQC peer KME exchange & mutual TLS | Secures Secure Application Entity (SAE) links with security support through March 16, 2029. |
Administered across the European Union under the Common Criteria framework, EUCC establishes standardized third-party testing requirements for information and communications technology products deployed in regulated networks. Designed as a crypto-agile overlay that separates key generation and distribution from data transport, Phio TX enables enterprises to integrate post-quantum algorithms and quantum key distribution interfaces alongside existing encryption appliances without hardware replacement.
According to Quantum XChange Chief Executive Officer Eddy Zervigon and Spanish telecommunications operator Evolutio Chief Executive Officer Jacinto Cavestany, independent transatlantic validation simplifies procurement reviews and supports cross-border data sovereignty mandates for financial institutions, telecom carriers, and government agencies.
