Quantum Xchange, an American technology company that provides an innovative cryptographic management platform to protect data today and in the quantum future, has just announced its entry into the European market through a strategic partnership with the Iberian ICT services company Warpcom, acquired by the multinational leader in the integration of Cloud Evolutio services in November 2021.
Under the terms of the agreement, Warpcom will offer Quantum Xchange’s Phio Trusted Xchange (TX) as part of its portfolio of cybersecurity technologies and managed services. Phio TX is a unique key delivery system that works with an organization’s existing cryptographic infrastructure to make it immediately quantum-safe. Warpcom customers and partners will benefit from an innovative key management platform that allows them to enforce enterprise encryption policy and keep pace with the changing threat landscape, advances in quantum computing, and cybersecurity risks.
“We are delighted to have Warpcom as an anchor partner in the European market. Its proven track record, knowledge of the Spanish and Portuguese-speaking markets, and its team of skilled technology professionals is second to none. Together, we will usher in the future of encryption and secure communications, bringing cryptographic diversity and quantum security to Warpcom’s areas of cybersecurity, network infrastructure, data center interconnects, and multi-cloud services.”
Eddy Zervigon, CEO of Quantum Xchange.
As global organizations begin to prepare for the biggest cryptographic transition in the history of computing – replacing traditional encryption with quantum-resistant algorithms – they are looking for solutions that are easy to implement, easy to maintain, and that work with their existing infrastructure. existing network. Phio TX works in conjunction with conventional encryption systems and any TCP/IP connection (wireless, copper, satellite, fiber) to send a second, out-of-band symmetric key through a separate tunnel protected by quantum cryptography and a interlaced network for multiple transmission points, and no need for new hardware along the way.
“The resiliency, redundancy and hybrid nature of the Phio TX system will enable our customers to modernize their cryptographic infrastructure to better combat today’s threats and bring quantum security to the network. This is especially important to ensure digital transformation efforts and avoid the high cost of system obsolescence.”
Pedro Morão, CEO of Warpcom.
Featuring a diverse portfolio of current and post-quantum encryption technologies, the Phio TX platform supports all Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms that are being evaluated by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). – National Institute of Standards and Technology), is validated by FIPS 140-2 and pending by 140-3, and complies with the protocol of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI – European Telecommunication Standards Institute) for the distribution of quantum keys (QKD – Quantum Key Distribution).
“5G will be the active infrastructure when the age of quantum computing has hit the market, adding new complexities and security concerns for leading telecommunications and network infrastructure providers. You should now start building a new layer of security defense in your environments to protect against data capture threats that can be deciphered in the near future, when quantum computing is available and thus protect current data that will be valid information in the future. . We have the knowledge and ability to help right away.”
Bruno Banha, Solutions Design & Warpdev Director at Warpcom.
