This is the peer-reviewed and patented technology that is the basis of Qrypt’s key generation and secure transfer products. It enables the generation of identical symmetric keys at multiple endpoints, without ever needing to distribute that key over the wire. This means that it cannot be intercepted.

What is Post Quantum Cryptography?

Cryptography that is implemented using algorithms that are thought safe from future quantum attack. Today’s asymmetric algorithms underpinning most internet transactions are at risk and need to be replaced with PQC algorithms, however while they are better than what is in place not even these PQC algorithms are proven secure.

What are the limitations of end-to-end encryption in current chat messaging?

End-to-end encryption, while secure against current threats, is not quantum- secure and thus vulnerable to future quantum computing attacks. Quantum security is essential now because data is already being harvested and stored by adversaries for future decryption once quantum computers become capable of breaking current encryption algorithms.
