PRESS RELEASE


AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ —


enQase


, a pioneering quantum-safe security solution, launches today to protect sensitive information from the threat of quantum attacks. This innovative solution addresses the urgent calls from leading business technology analysts, cybersecurity experts, and governments worldwide who are emphasizing the importance of fortifying digital defenses against quantum computing threats.


The need for action is pressing, as malicious hackers who acquire sensitive encrypted data today could decrypt it soon with quantum computers – hence the term “harvest now, decrypt later”.


Why enQase exists


In August 2024, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) released its recommendations for Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), urging all sectors to begin transitioning to higher levels of cryptographic protection immediately.


Experts, including the World Economic Forum, recommend combining PQC with Quantum Random Number Generation (QRNG) to provide organizations with the strongest protection against future quantum computing threats. While PQC is expected to offer good data security, the integration of both technologies is considered the most comprehensive approach to safeguarding sensitive information in the post-quantum era.


Certain limitations have prompted organizations and sectors to explore more comprehensive security solutions for their most sensitive information, including:


  • Theoretical foundations:


    PQC standards are grounded on theoretical analyses and projections of quantum computer capabilities. The security of these algorithms relies on mathematical assumptions that may be challenged as quantum technology advances.


  • Deterministic Algorithms:


    PQC utilizes deterministic algorithms, which could potentially be vulnerable to unforeseen weaknesses or breakthroughs in quantum computing.


  • Reliance on PRNGs:


    PQC implementations often depend on Pseudo-Random Number Generators (PRNGs) for key generation and other random values. The security of these systems could be compromised if the PRNGs are found to be predictable or vulnerable to quantum attacks.


In comparison, enQase takes quantum-safe security beyond conventional standards by harnessing the power of quantum mechanics to fortify and ‘enQase’ NIST’s PQC standards. This innovative approach provides organizations with unparalleled assurance that their information will remain secure today, against “Harvest now, Decrypt later” attacks, and well into the future.


How enQase ensures future-proof security


In an era where traditional encryption methods are increasingly vulnerable, enQase stands as a beacon of innovation. Our quantum-enhanced security platform doesn’t just meet today’s standards—it defines tomorrow’s.


The comprehensive platform leverages PQC, Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG), digital Quantum Key Distribution (dQKD), and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). At the forefront of innovation, enQase offers an industry-first hybrid key distribution system that uniquely combines both QKD and dQKD technologies.


enQase offers unparalleled deployment flexibility, with options ranging from Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), perpetual licensing, and on-premises hardware solutions. The platform seamlessly integrates with existing infrastructure while ensuring full-stack interoperability and scalability to meet evolving security needs.


“enQase counters this threat with a robust data security solution that leverages quantum mechanics to enhance NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) protection. The platform offers unique deployment flexibility and scalability demanded by Global 500 companies and government organizations to protect their entire information lifecycle.”
