U.S. Army awards QuSecure SBIR
On September 10, QuSecure, Inc., a leader in post-quantum cryptography (PQC), announced it has been selected for the United States Army Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project titled “Enhanced Post-Quantum Cryptography Suite for Tactical Networks.”
This SBIR Phase II award further establishes QuSecure as a leading provider of Federal PQC solutions. The contract scope of work is organized to further enhance QuProtect, the industry’s first end-to-end PQC software-based solution that enables organizations to springboard from cryptographic discovery and non-compliant algorithm detection straight to full quantum-resilience with live encryption management, continuous monitoring, vulnerability and alerting capabilities – all which can be achieved without the need to rip-and-replace current infrastructure.
“This project, in addition to all of our work and traction across all U.S. military branches, further validates that QuSecure is setting the standard for Federal PQC requirements,” said Pete Ford, head of federal operations at QuSecure. “Serving the government with this important U.S. Army project will provide Crypto Agility, Continuous Cryptographic Inventory (CCI) and Cryptography Orchestration (CO), so the U.S. Government can better protect and manage against classical, AI, and quantum computing threats to cryptography, bringing true resilience to the nation’s most secure encrypted communications for decades to come.”
