QuProtect Recognized as Industry’s Only Fully Orchestrated Encryption Management Solution Delivering Validated Post-Quantum Cryptography that is Monitored for Attack and Actively Defended
SAN MATEO, Calif.: #FastCo--QuSecure™, Inc., a leader in post-quantum cryptography (PQC), today announced its QuProtect Crypto-Agility platform was honored in Fast Company’s Innovation by Design Awards for 2024 program in the User Experience category.
The Innovation by Design Awards, which can be found in the Summer issue of Fast Company, honor the designers and businesses solving the most crucial problems of today and anticipating the pressing issues of tomorrow. The competition, now in its 13th year, features a range of blue-chip companies, emerging startups, and promising young talent. It is one of the most sought-after design awards in the industry. Alongside QuSecure, other recognitions in the User Experience category include the Google Pixel Fold, Samsung One UI 6.1, Notion AI, and the Target Shopping Cart.
“This year’s honorees show how essential creativity is to the process of innovation,” said Brendan Vaughan, editor-in-chief of Fast Company. “It’s inspiring to see how some of the best minds across industries are using design to shape our world for the better.”
QuSecure was awarded this recognition for its success in creating an intuitive user experience while bringing a completely new category to market – orchestrated encryption management. Virtually every large company in the world – and virtually every technology user – relies on encryption to keep their data safe, yet historically companies have not managed their own encryption. They have traditionally relied on disparate third parties and spreadsheets to manage encryption, and it’s no surprise that broken encryption methods often remain active for years without organizations noticing. With the advancing threats of AI and quantum computing decryption targeting our nation’s most sensitive data and communications, it has become necessary for organizations to take control of their encryption.
Crypto-Agility Made Simple
QuSecure is proud to be recognized for ushering in a new paradigm where upgrading cryptography is intuitive and centralized, a stark contrast to the current complex processes. With QuProtect, organizations take full control of encryption, not just migrating to the new post-quantum standards, and gain full central control to change algorithms, crypto libraries, key lengths, key rotation, protocols, and even generate real-time auditable cryptographic inventories and reports – all without downtime or impact to live systems.
“We are honored by this recognition, which highlights our team’s dedication to making managed cryptography throughout vast networks an empowering and simple experience for the first time,” said Meg Gleason, Head of User Experience and Product Adoption for QuSecure. “We are proud to provide security leaders with essential, previously unavailable controls crucial for safeguarding our future.”
Chris Trinidad, Senior UX/UI Software Engineer for QuSecure, added: “Simplifying our revolutionary product’s user interface amidst the complexities of how network cryptography is done today and showcasing our unique ability to give the user the power to be Crypto-Agile have been a challenging yet rewarding journey. We’re thrilled to make this advanced technology simple and intuitive for our users.”
The judges include renowned designers from a variety of disciplines, business leaders from some of the most innovative companies in the world, and Fast Company’s own writers and editors. Entries are judged on the key ingredients of innovation – functionality, originality, beauty, sustainability, user insight, cultural impact, and business impact.
