This standard defines a quantum-security embedded architecture for 6G-based consumer Internet of Things (IoT) environments. It specifies technical requirements and evaluation methods for integrating Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), and Quantum-AI (Q-AI)–based threat detection within heterogeneous IoT systems operating over 6G networks. Covered areas include secure device identity, authentication, key management, roaming security, secure end-to-end network slicing, lightweight cryptography for constrained devices, and anomaly detection in edge/cloud nodes.
