Cyber security is a major issue for many organizations.  News of companies being hacked, private information exposed, and credit card information being stolen are heard on a daily basis.  As a result, companies lose millions of dollars and their reputation takes a hit.  Furthermore, because of the embarrassment and bad consequences that will follow, many companies do not report the hacks.

Hackers are becoming more and more sophisticated.  Quantum Computing is an upcoming technology that is generating immense interest.  According to the experts and literature, Quantum Computing will be able to break into any current encryption system within seconds.  This is what makes Quantum Computing unique and no current systems can protect organizations from Quantum Computing attacks. Once the Q-Day arrives, hackers or governments equipped with Quantum Computing technology can easily break into any encrypted system.

For example, China is taking Quantum Computing so seriously that they are investing billions of dollars into Quantum Computing research.  They are already looking into integrating Quantum Computing technology within their systems either in military or business-related activities.  Quantum Computing will certainly create a competitive advantage for those end users, organizations and governments who adopt it early.

01 Communique’s commitment to innovation and cyber security led to the development of IronCAP X, the world’s first quantum-safe end to end email and file encryption system.

With the increased sophistication of hacking tools and the fast approaching of quantum computing, IronCAP X is a necessity for everyone.  IronCAP X is ideal for any organization exchanging sensitive information across the internet and needs to protect its information residing on its servers from Quantum Computing attacks.   

On April 24 2019, 01 Communique performed a live demonstration of IronCAP X at its Annual General Meeting.  One participant asked if IronCAP X would have made a difference in safeguarding information during the 2016 election in the US.  Although the participant asked it as a tongue in cheek question, there is a serious side to his inquiries.

Quantum Computing has serious implications to cyber security.  Companies must get themselves prepared to safeguard their data not only today, but also for the future when the Q-Day arrives. 

The commercial launch of IronCAP X will be in the fall of 2019.  IronCAP X is free for individual users and will be available for $99.95 per user/year for businesses.

For more information and a live demonstration of IronCAP X please contact 01 Communique at info@ironcap.ca.

01 Develops Post-Quantum Blockchain

Blocks (1292x450)

 

01 Communique is an innovation leader in the new realm of Post-Quantum
Cyber Security. Blockchains have taken the world by storm because they
have taken cyber security to a new height. While blockchains are poised
to disrupt many industries, from their operations to business models,
quantum computing is poised to disrupt virtually the whole cyber security
as we know today, including blockchains.

Blockchains use public/private key (asymmetric) cryptography to
generate digital signatures. Its security is based on the complexity of
computation. It takes a very long time (much longer than an average human
life span) to crack such mechanism even when using a super computer.

This will be good enough until the public/private key cryptography can be
broken easily by quantum computers, a new breed of computer that poised
to disrupt virtually all cyber securities in practice today. Some critics say that
quantum computers are a fiction and will always be. We believe quantum
computers have evolved beyond fictions. If we don’t act now and wait until
quantum computers become more accessible by the public either through
the cloud or even owning one, then it will be too late.

I’m InTouch and I’m OnCall users, making their remote access post-quantum

Remotely Access your Windows PC from a Mac

The latest version of I’m InTouch (v10.1) has included a Java client so that users on a Mac computer can also remotely control their Windows PC via a Java interface.

In addition, this latest version of I’m InTouch has also included a very handy feature allowing users of I’m InTouch to change their Computer Name remotely.

Can I be alerted only on important emails while not bothered by numerous unwanted notifications?

YES!!  I’m InTouch gives you this magical touch!!

Traditional mobile email apps are “All or Nothing” in their notification features.  This means either you will not be alerted when an important email has come in or you will be bothered by numerous unwanted notifications.

I’m InTouch allows you to set up an intelligent “hot list” of email addresses or domains.  You will only be notified when you have received emails from those on the “hot list”.  When you hear a notification, with a single click on your mobile device you can open and read that important email on your Outlook at the remote PC instantly.

Put it simple, with I’m InTouch, you have the peace of mind that you won’t miss any important email while on the go.  Yet you won’t be bothered by numerous unwanted notifications.

Note:
You PC with Outlook must have I’m InTouch installed.  You also need to download the free app I’m InTouch GoMail on your mobile device on which you wish to receive notification.

I’m InTouch is ready for Enterprise Users

With the latest version of I’m InTouch (v10.0) that has added the support of LDAP authentication, enterprise users with central authentication infrastructure (e.g. Active Directory) can now choose to authenticate their I’m InTouch remote control sessions by attaching to the central authentication infrastructure.

This means:

  1. Enterprise users do not need to define their I’m InTouch remote access passwords separately
  2. IT Managers can “inherit” the same password policy for their I’m InTouch remote access sessions (e.g. the way to reset password, requirement to change password regularly, one-time password, etc.)
  3. IT Managers can change the I’m InTouch remote access credential of any user when necessary such as in the event of staff leaving.

I’m OnCall Password Reset Mechanism

We are committed to provide our customers with products that have the highest quality and security. If you have forgotten your account login password, a “Password Reset” mechanism is provided to help resetting your password. Our new “Password Reset” mechanism will authenticate you by asking you to answer a secret question on top of a CAPTCHA challenge-response system. Upon a successful authentication, an email with a link to reset your password will be sent to your designated email address.

Thanks to I’m InTouch GoMail!!

“I went on a cruise trip to the Bahamas during the holidays. While relaxing at the pool facing the ocean, a beep came in notifying me that I had an incoming email. Since I’m InTouch will only notify me when email arrives from my important customers, I opened up the email realising that I had forgotten to send an important PDF to my client before the holiday. I replied via I’m InTouch GoMail and attached the PDF file from my office computer. DONE!!

Very little cellular data has been used since I’m InTouch GoMail basically instructed my Outlook in my office PC to do the job. The PDF file was also being sent from my office PC without having to upload it to any third party cloud. This has not only reduced data usage (which is outrageously expensive on a cruise ship) but also made me feel secure with maximum privacy.

I can really enjoy a long vacation with the peace of mind that I can still handle emergency matters remotely with I’m InTouch”.
