What time is it? Y2Q.

Advances in quantum computing and recent  breakthroughs using hybrid attack methods that incorporate AI & Machine Learning have drastically reduced the quantum capabilities required for “Y2Q” – the day bad actors will be in a position to break today’s encryption. Y2Q could be just 1 – 3 years away.

Most vulnerable is the IoT space and its 13 billion (growing to 25 Billion by 2030) connected devices where compute power and memory space are at a high premium – so weaker (or no) encryption is often employed.

Prepare for this threat with QiSpace™, the only platform on the planet providing all three prerequisites for end-to-end quantum security – Trust, Uncertainty, and Entropy – TrUE. Fast, lightweight, resource efficient, and readily deployable encryption and entropy services that work seamlessly on TODAY’s Internet.
