In this episode of PING, Caspar Schutijser and Ralph Koning from SIDN Labs in the Netherlands discuss their post-quantum testbed project. As mentioned in the previous PING episode about Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) in DNSSEC with Peter Thomassen from SSE and Jason Goertzen from Sandbox AQ it's vital we understand how this technology shift will affect real-world DNS systems in deployment.

The SIDN Labs system has been designed to be a "one stop shop" for DNS operators to test configurations of DNSSEC for their domain management systems, with a complete virtualised environment to run inside. It's fully scriptable so can be modified to suit a number of different situations and potentially include builds of your own critical software components to include with the system under test.
