FREE safe remote access!

While this pandemic takes over our lives, our work life has become difficult to cope.
01 Communique had foreseen the importance of working remotely and has adopted that culture for many years.

The massive increase in remote “at home” access, current remote protocol and encryption, products can’t keep up with demand. But 01 Communique can and is providing access to its state-of-the-art remote access product “I’m InTouch” for FREE for the next 120 days, from March 23rd to July 23rd.  This is CEO, Andrew Cheung’s way of giving back to our community in times of need and distress in order to ease working from home and help business suffer less.

Most small businesses and entrepreneurs are at risk right now but can remedy that by clicking this link to gain free access to remote access service:  https://www.accesswire.com/581503/01-Communique-Announces-120-day-Free-Usage-Offer-of-Im-InTouch-Remote-Access-Services-as-Covid-19-Expands

01 Communique announces their IronCAP X free version to be launched this April 23rd, an email encryption product for personal usage.

01 Communique has spent many years building the IronCAP Cryptographic Engine and is now ready to release IronCAP X, which is a quantum-safe email encryption product providing protection for all types of users and is designed to integrate with everyday email clients such as Outlook, Gmail, Yahoo and others.

This IronCAP X free version for personal usage is designed as a showcase of the underlying IronCAP technology. Availability of the IronCAP X Business Usage paid version will be announced shortly after. IronCAP cryptography engine is quantum safe, low cost, easy to install; and designed to replace RSA quickly and easily. 01 Communique President,  Andrew Cheung, believes IronCAP is much faster and safer than RSA and encourage users to give our product a try to see for themselves.

What is Amazon Braket?

In December 2019, Amazon launched Amazon Braket, a quantum computing service. They also launched the AWS Center for Quantum Computing and the AWS Quantum Solutions lab, a research collaboration centre helping clients adapt to quantum computing applications.

Unlike other large players in the space (Google, Microsoft, IBM); Amazon is choosing specialized partnerships to enter the market, rather than building their own quantum computer. They are working with D-Wave, IonQ and Rigetti to provide quantum computing services through their cloud.

What does Amazon Braket do?

Amazon Braket will allow developers to access and build quantum algorithms and applications through a single interface. Amazon braket is currently in preview mode, with customers needing to apply to use the service (do so here: https://pages.awscloud.com/Amazon-Braket-Preview.html)

Amazon Braket will allow a larger range of customers to access, use and benefit from quantum computing technology. Ultimately, this will result in faster adoption and development of quantum computers. As quantum computers become more developed, the need for IronCAP’s quantum-safe encryption increases. As many companies will need time to adapt to the technology, we recommend beginning your migration today to ensure your data is safe from grab-and-wait attacks.

Amazon Partners Give Commentary

Speak to the implications of Amazon Braket. Quotes courtesy of Tech Crunch.

Charlie Bell, senior vice president, Utility Computing Services, AWS said, “With our Amazon Braket service and Amazon Quantum Solutions Lab, we’re making it easier for customers to gain experience using quantum computers and to work with experts from AWS and our partners to figure out how they can benefit from the technology. And with our AWS Center for Quantum Computing and academic partnerships, we join the effort across the scientific and industrial communities to help accelerate the promise of quantum computing.” (Tech Crunch, 2019).

Chad Rigetti, founder and CEO of Rigetti Computing said, “By collaborating with AWS, we will be able to deliver access to our systems to a much broader market and help accelerate the growth of this emerging industry,” (Tech Crunch, 2019).

D-Wave’s chief product officer and EVP of R&D, Alan Baratz said, “Amazon’s Braket will open the door to more smart developers who will build the quantum future, and the forward-thinking executives who will transform industries.” (Tech Crunch, 2019).

In a research forum shared by Google and NASA, the first claim of quantum supremacy was made. The report was removed from the site after the story was broken by the financial times.
A quote from the news breaking article; “Google claims to have built the first quantum computer that can carry out calculations beyond the ability of today’s most powerful supercomputers, a landmark moment that has been hotly anticipated by researchers. Google, claimed that their processor was able to perform a calculation in three minutes and 20 seconds that would take today’s most advanced classical computer, known as Summit, approximately 10,000 years.”
Source: “financial times, google claims to have reached quantum supremacy”.
What is quantum supremacy?
Quantum supremacy means that calculations have been completed by quantum computers that would take classical computers an insurmountable amount of time. This is an important milestone and indicator as to the viability and readiness of quantum computing for commercial applications.
The research paper from Google noted “This dramatic speed-up relative to all known classical algorithms provides an experimental realisation of quantum supremacy on a computational task and heralds the advent of a much-anticipated computing paradigm”.
A link to the article is available by searching google for “Financial Times, Google claims to have reached quantum supremacy”.
What does this mean for enterprises?
Enterprises should be paying attention to this breakthrough. Quantum supremacy indicates that quantum computers are getting stronger. It will not be long before enterprise grade, powerful quantum computers are in the hands of the public and potential bad actors. IronCAP’s API is available to protect enterprise digital assets and infrastructure from the threat of quantum computers.
IBM has also announced an opening of a quantum computation centre in New York State. 14 quantum computers, including the latest version a 53-qubit quantum computer will be available to commercial clients starting in October. Director of Research, Dario Gil is quoted; “Our strategy, since we put the very first quantum computer on the cloud in 2016, was to move quantum computing beyond isolated lab experiments conducted by a handful of organizations, into the hands of tens of thousands of users”.
