01 COMMUNIQUE PARTNERS WITH KEYFACTOR TO PROVIDE QUANTUM-SAFE X.509 CERTIFICATES

01 Communique Laboratory Inc. has arranged a new technology partnership with Keyfactor. Keyfactor is the identity-first security solution for modern enterprises. The partnership will foster the development and joint marketing of quantum-safe X.509 certificates for the enterprise certification authority solution, EJBCA, as well as cybersecurity solutions for global businesses, organizations and governments, to help them achieve cyber-resilience.

"We are thrilled to join forces with 01 Communique to provide cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions for the postquantum era. By integrating IronCAP's patent-protected cryptographic technology combined with postquantum cryptography (PQC) algorithms selected by NIST [National Institute of Standards and Technology] for standardization, we are enhancing the way businesses safeguard their sensitive data. Together, we empower vendors and businesses with quantum-safe solutions that not only address current cybersecurity risks, but also anticipate and mitigate the challenges of tomorrow," said Rodney Weaver, business development manager at Keyfactor.

This partnership marks a significant step toward a secure digital landscape, ensuring peace of mind for organizations and individuals in the face of evolving cyberthreats.

"Cybercrime is at its peak now and the rapid development in quantum computing intensifies the existing cybersecurity threats by rendering current encryption systems obsolete. We are excited to be partnering with Keyfactor to pioneer the development of quantum-safe X.509 certificates for EJBCA, as well as qualified, quantum-safe solutions to protect valuable digital assets from the threats posed by quantum computing," said Andrew Cheung, president and chief executive officer of 01 Communique. "The threat of quantum computing to the world of cybersecurity has arrived. We must prepare and start migrating our current encryption systems to become quantum-safe now."

IronCAP's combined NIST-approved postquantum cryptography algorithms and its patent-protected cryptographic technology are designed to operate on current computer systems to safeguard against cyberthreats in the postquantum world of computing. 01 Communique believes this partnership will empower vendors/businesses with quantum-safe solutions to seamlessly tackle cybersecurity risks today and into the future.
