“Quantum measurements are the only true source of random”

In the absence of actual randomness, current random number generators can be tampered with, characterized, or predicted by powerful computers used by foreign nation-states and those with access to increasingly capable machine learning tools. US companies can easily improve key security, which is based on bad randomness, through Qrypt’s Quantum Entropy service. US companies must follow suit, equipping themselves with the most secure, robust post-quantum cryptography, like the technologies offered by Qrypt, to protect our nation from foreign data hacks. Qrypt’s release of its QRNG, which is used as source random for its popular Quantum Entropy service, expands its entropy offerings, increasing its solutions for random number generation.

“Quantum measurements are the only true source of random,” said Qrypt CTO Denis Mandich. “We developed and manufactured our latest Quantum Random Number Generator completely in the US, so American companies don’t need to worry about adversaries tampering in the supply chain with their entropy. If you’re interested in how our latest QRNG generates entropy – using quantum fluctuations of optical signals – reach out, and we’ll share more.”

Qrypt Enables Businesses to Easily Replicate the Data Security of Air-Gapped Networks

AIT News Desk — Fri, 16 Jul 2021 08:47:34 +0000

New Data at Rest Application Offers Secure Data Storage with Quantum-Generated One-Time Pad Encryption for Enterprises, Federal Agencies, Healthcare and Financial Organizations

Qrypt, a leader in cryptographic quantum security solutions enabled by Quantum Entropy-as-a-Service (EaaS), unveiled its Quantum Data at Rest (QDAR) application. QDAR provides one-time pad encryption as a data-at-rest solution for companies to secure important files, proprietary information and all mission-critical data. Qrypt’s technology allows businesses to replicate air gapped networks – the highest level of data security used by the CIA.

“The security industry has always warned that keeping data safe meant trusting no one else. We’re simply making that an attainable possibility for anyone to easily deploy,” said Denis Mandich, Qrypt’s CTO and co-founder. “QDAR is the next step in Qrypt’s mission to democratize quantum encryption. Businesses now have access to unbreakable one-time pad encryption to keep their most important files safe from malicious attackers, even in the event of security breaches or data harvesting.”

In today’s world, many applications used to communicate data, including Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Facebook Workplace, are also the data encryption platform. If at any point the service provider is compromised, it is very likely that all customer and user data also becomes compromised. By separating the communication platform from the encryption platform, malicious attackers instead need to simultaneously breach both services to access the valuable data. In a world where “harvest now, decrypt later” tactics are a serious threat, this de-coupled approach vastly improves data security.

QDAR is powered by Qrypt’s patented BLAST algorithm, which leverages quantum random number generation from multiple sources of entropy to produce perfectly random one-time pad. Any user can quickly and easily encrypt sensitive files with quantum random generated one-time pads. Only users with the same pad can decrypt the data to read the files, ensuring important information is kept secret. Businesses can use this network to share sensitive information across a remote workforce without any risk of compromise, a need that has increased during the pandemic.

Because each encryption session and one-time pad are unique and bear no relation to the next session and key, this approach to encryption is the only techniques that cannot be “brute forced” by quantum computing. One-time pad encryption can only be broken if an attacker has access to the specific pool of random numbers used by QDAR to encrypt the data, as well as the specific sampling and extraction parameters unique to that encryption session. Essentially, Qrypt’s QDAR can only be compromised at the point of no return – when a malicious actor already has complete digital or physical access to the user’s devices.

Qrypt’s quantum encryption technology is based on years of research and development with leading engineers, physicists and cryptographers to build a revolutionary new approach to data security for the quantum computing age. The company holds several strategic partnerships with leading domestic and international labs providing exclusive access to novel quantum entropy sources that power Qrypt’s EaaS technologies. All of the company’s research has been validated by experts in their field, published and evaluated in various recognized peer-reviewed journals. Qrypt also holds an international patent portfolio with eight patents and 100+ claims for its various technologies and solutions in the U.S., Europe, Japan and Korea.

Qrypt Makes First Step Toward Widespread Quantum Secure Cryptography Through the Cloud

AIT News Desk — Wed, 09 Jun 2021 17:55:08 +0000

Qrypt, a producer of cryptographic quantum security solutions enabled by Quantum Entropy-as-a-Service (EaaS), is emerging from stealth and announcing the launch of its Cloud Entropy Portal. This world’s first virtual EaaS solution provides fast access to high-quality Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNG) hardware.

The Cloud Entropy Portal democratizes the availability of quantum safe random numbers for any application, especially cryptographic key generation. Perfect randomness is essential for both classical and Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), which requires vastly larger key sizes – up to full one-time pad systems. In addition to the Cloud Entropy Portal, Qrypt will soon unveil additional quantum data-at-rest and data-in-motion SDKs for any business, organization, or government agency to integrate quantum security into their applications.

“My time in the CIA led me to believe privacy is a fundamental right, and everyone should have access to CIA-level security – which is why I started Qrypt,” said Kevin Chalker, Qrypt’s CEO and founder. “Rapid advances in quantum computing make our current data security obsolete and put us on the verge of a once-in-a-generation transformation of cybersecurity.”

Qrypt’s technology massively scales quantum secure encryption, avoiding the high infrastructure investment in proprietary Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) appliances. Instead of satellite installations and dedicated fiber optic cabling, Qrypt has digitized the simultaneous key generation of QKD through an authenticated network of QRNGs in the cloud. Useful for both classical cryptography and PQC, this approach eliminates the problem of replicated or predictable keys found across modern IP networks. Qrypt will empower any business or organization to enjoy the same national-security level of encryption the White House utilized for the “Red Phone” – the Washington-Moscow Direct Communications Link for quantum-secure communications with the Kremlin.

For businesses requiring the highest level of security and privacy for their customers and applications, Qrypt’s technology will be the brass ring. Combining EaaS and PQC encryption nullifies a breach’s impact since stolen data can never be decrypted – even by quantum computers. Implementing Qrypt’s SDK neutralizes the “harvest now, decrypt later” tactics performed across global networks for decades. DevOps teams at any enterprise, financial institution, healthcare organization or government agency will have the essential tools and raw materials to meet the security challenges of the quantum age, which is an “extinction event” for the current public key infrastructure.

“Quantum computers are an existential threat to data security because they can calculate cryptographic keys in seconds, an impossible feat for the combined power of all the current supercomputers in existence,” said Denis Mandich, Qrypt CTO and co-founder. “Cybercriminals and hostile state actors will leverage these quantum machines to exploit data on an industrial scale, compromising our privacy, national security and ultimately our economic future.”

In founding Qrypt, Kevin and Denis hand-selected a talented team of seasoned leaders in engineering, physics, and cryptography to help build Qrypt’s patented solutions suite. Key amongst them is Qrypt’s chief cryptographer Yevgeniy Dodis, Ph.D., an IACR fellow and global leader in cryptography research focused on random number generation, protocol composition and information-theoretic cryptography. Combining Kevin’s vision, Denis’ experience, Dr. Yevgeniy’s research, and the team’s deep security expertise, Qrypt laid the groundwork for a revolutionary new approach to data security for the quantum computing age.

The company spent years on quantum cryptography research and development before launching a solution. Strategic partnerships with leading domestic, national and international labs provided exclusive access to quantum entropy sources and advanced technologies – many of which did not exist a decade ago. All of Qrypt’s research is published and validated in peer-reviewed journals by professional experts in their field – there are no black boxes or unproven science. Qrypt also holds an international issued patent portfolio in the US, Europe, Japan and Korea, with eight patents and 100+ claims.
