On May 8, Mattermost and Qrypt announced a Joint Development Program to deliver quantum-secure end-to-end encryption (E2EE) integrated within the Mattermost platform.
This program enables early customers to actively participate in tailoring the solution to their specific operational needs, ensuring both immediate and long-term protection of critical data in the face of advancing cyber threats, including those posed by quantum computing.
“Our collaboration with Qrypt addresses an urgent need for quantum-secure communication solutions capable of safeguarding national security organizations against emerging threats,” said Dr. Bill Anderson, principal product manager for Mattermost. “By combining Mattermost’s trusted platform with Qrypt’s quantum-secure encryption framework, we’re enabling customers to future-proof their sensitive communications.”
The integration leverages Qrypt’s BLAST protocol and unique quantum entropy, ensuring secure communication by eliminating key transmission risks, providing resilience by design, and seamlessly integrating quantum-secure E2EE into Mattermost’s user-friendly interface. This solution ensures that messages are secure both now and into the post-quantum future.
“The quantum industry is advancing at a pace that compresses our cybersecurity timelines,” said Kevin Chalker, CEO of Qrypt. “This partnership with Mattermost is a critical step in transitioning to stronger encryption technologies, ensuring sensitive communications remain secure against today’s threats and the quantum risks on the near horizon.”
