How can #IronCAP help #business prepare for #quantumcomputing?

In the age of so-called smart technology, there’s one major threat we all face – and you may not even know about it yet.

Quantum computing threatens to undermine much of the security of the digital world that we have come to rely on, and if you haven’t already started planning ahead, your business will be at risk in the very near future. Fortunately, there’s still time—if you act now, you can ensure your business will be protected from quantum computing’s devastating effects by learning how to implement IronCAP Toolkits into your technology.

Today, quantum computing is still in its nascent stages, but experts predict it will take off within the next ten years. Quantum computers could be used to crack encryption codes that we use today to protect our data, including sensitive medical records, banking information and personal communications. However, with proper preparation and implementation, you can make sure your business is not left behind in this changing landscape of cyber-security threats. Read on to learn about how IronCAP’s advanced cybersecurity tools can help you prepare your business for the challenges of quantum computing and the future of online security.

You need to act now!

We at IronCAP™ have been trying to educate businesses and individuals that Q-day (the day the first quantum hack is publicly recognized) is around the corner and everybody needs to gear up. Nation states and governments are already at it, how about you? To learn more, visit www.ironcap.ca.

IronCAP™ is our latest innovation for the post-quantum cybersecurity. This patent-protected, post-quantum cryptographic system is based on the Goppa Code-based cryptographic technology. It has embedded our proprietary subclass of (L, G) making it not only more secured but also has faster cryptographic operations (key generation, encryption, decryption) than the traditional Goppa Code-based technology (McEliece). We are offering a live demonstration for the general public to try and experience the strength of IronCAP™ post-quantum encryption easily. To learn more, visit www.ironcap.ca.

IronCAP’s $100,000 Hackathon Closes, IronCAP Proves Un-Hackable!

See our video announcement at https://youtu.be/04mXG982J5Q

After much anticipation, IronCAP’s hackathon has come to a close. 517 entrants from around the world patiently wait to hear the results, as do our investors and partners.
We are so excited to announce that not a single hacker was able to crack IronCAP’s encryption! Despite 30 days to adequately study, test and hack IronCAP’s encryption, IronCAP’s encryption engine stood strong.

To our knowledge, IronCAP is the first quantum safe encryption product to successfully survive a hackathon challenge. This hackathon has shown customers and partners that IronCAP is the best choice for post-quantum encryption.

Developments in the quantum computing space are announced weekly. More large companies are entering the space of developing quantum computers (e.g. Intel) and making them more accessible to the world (e.g. Amazon Braket). The implications of stronger chips and greater accessibility are that the need for protection grows by the day. Don’t let your company become vulnerable to these powerful machines because you started your migration efforts too late.

01 Communique is leading quantum safe encryption and working with new customers, partners and investors every day. If you would like to begin integrating IronCAP into your security suite, or partner with us, email mj.tullo@ironcap.ca to get started.

IronCAP’s Tech Talks & Hackathon Kick Off Sold Out!

IronCAP hosted a sold out afternoon of tech talks and celebration. Along with Andrew Cheung, CEO of 01 Communique, other speakers included Jennifer Quaid of Canadian Cyber Threat Exchange (CCTX), Joanna W. Ng of Devarim Design and Lois Tullo ICD.D MBA CPA of the Global Risk Institute! All of the talks were interesting, thought-provoking and slightly anxiety-including. Attendees learned about the state of cybersecurity and how to quantify and manage cyber risk, AI & IOT. Attendees gained a better understanding of quantum computing and the threat it poses to traditional encryption. Andrew and the IronCAP team were excited to share the news about IronCAP’s expert validation, and LIVE public validation – our $100,000 hackathon! Register on our homepage.

 

If you would like Andrew Cheung / IronCAP to do a private presentation of their content at your meetup, workshop, internal company conference, or external conference, please send an email requesting information to mj.tullo@ironcap.ca. Recently, we presented at Leading Cyber Ladies Meetup: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6597716376566272000/

More information about each of the speakers are below, along with a link to a clip of their talk found on our youtube channel available shortly (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrbGgkSemPtfQgpKX8stySg)

The Cybersecurity Speaker was Jennifer Quaid, Chief Operating Officer at the Canadian Cyber Threat Exchange (CCTX)! Jennifer discussed the current state of cyber threats, the cost of complacency and the growing importance of collaboration in securing ourselves. She also shared the potential impact of quantum computing on our cyber resilience, as well as some shocking stories about a hack on a Las Vegas Casino.

The Quantum Computing speaker was Andrew Cheung, who is the CEO of 01 Communique. Andrew is a serial entrepreneur and a co-inventor of 7 patents plus several patent-pending applications, with over 25 years of experience in communications, mobile, and cyber security solutions development. Andrew discussed the state of quantum computing and innovations in the field. He also shared news from IronCAP’s public endorsements from Dr. Persichetti in Florida as well as the CIO Review as the editor’s choice for most promising quantum computing solution.

The Risk Management Speaker was Lois Tullo from the Global Risk Institute! She discussed risks, cyber-attacks and the trend of Cyber Dependency. She also discussed risks and opportunities that Quantum computing presents and a framework for managing non-financial risks and trends.

The Artificial Intelligence Speaker was Joanna W. Ng of Devarim Design & IBM Master Inventor! Joanna gave an overview of Artificial Intelligence including intelligent virtual assistants like Amazon’s Alexa, Google’s Assistant etc., an important application of AI. She shared upcoming innovations such as enterprise intelligence enabled by the integration of AI, IOT, 5G and Blockchain.
