Qrypt, the pioneering quantum-secure encryption company, has completed its Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with Los Alamos National Labs (LANL) to develop Qrypt’s state-of-the-art Quantum Random Number Generation (QRNG). This technology enables Qrypt’s cloud-based Quantum Entropy and Quantum Key Generation services with true quantum randomness to deliver reliable cryptographic security at scale, protecting data from the threat of quantum computing.
“Our collaboration is enhancing the foundation of cryptographic systems by addressing the critical need for unpredictable random number generation, while also showcasing our commitment to transparency through the open scientific peer-review process.”
In digital security, the strength of encryption heavily relies on the unpredictability of random numbers. Traditional methods of generating them often fall short, producing patterns or other underlying structure. Sophisticated algorithms can eventually reveal the patterns and compromise sensitive information like personal data or intellectual property.
Qrypt Quantum Entropy Service
Qrypt addresses this data vulnerability by harnessing the inherent unpredictability of quantum mechanics to produce truly unpredictable random numbers. Qrypt’s Quantum Entropy service delivers high-quality entropy to Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) and key management systems, ensuring the production of secure encryption keys. This quantum-derived entropy is also integral to Qrypt’s own quantum-secure encryption solutions, providing an additional layer of security designed to meet the challenges of current and future cryptographic needs.
“The successful completion of our CRADA with LANL is a pivotal step ensuring the security guarantees of encryption through genuine quantum randomness,” said Denis Mandich, chief technology officer and co-founder, Qrypt. “Our collaboration is enhancing the foundation of cryptographic systems by addressing the critical need for unpredictable random number generation, while also showcasing our commitment to transparency through the open scientific peer-review process.”
