QuSecure and NVIDIA Partnership Offers
Integrated cuPQC Approach to Cybersecurity Accelerating a Community
Effort to Build Communications Ready for the Quantum Computing
Age
QuSecure™, Inc., a leader in post-quantum cryptography (PQC),
today announced it has joined NVIDIA and a select group of
technology leaders in supporting NVIDIA’s cuPQC, a recently
launched pioneering library set to redefine cryptography in the
quantum era. NVIDIA’s cuPQC leverages the unmatched parallelism of
NVIDIA GPUs to meet the rigorous demands of next-generation
security algorithms, marking a monumental leap in bringing PQC to
environments that stand to benefit most from their protection,
including telecommunications, insurance, banking and finance,
critical infrastructure, and the public sector, all of which
QuSecure currently and actively supports.
Refactoring Security for the Quantum Threshold
The threats from quantum computing pose unprecedented challenges
to current cryptographic standards, with the potential to
compromise the public keys safeguarding today’s communications,
including the global internet. Recognizing this urgency,
governmental and industry efforts are intensifying to devise robust
PQC solutions, with cryptographers working on advanced algorithms
to replace today’s public keys. QuSecure, at the forefront of
cryptographic innovation, is supporting and collaborating with
NVIDIA to promote the availability of potent computational
resources to foster the development and validation of advanced
algorithms destined to replace existing public keys.
“QuSecure is proud to collaborate with NVIDIA as part of a vital
alliance under the Linux Foundation, dedicated to cultivating an
open-source repository of post-quantum algorithms and
applications,” said Rebecca Krauthamer, Co-Founder and Chief
Product Officer at QuSecure. “NVIDIA’s commitment to empowering
developers in the post-quantum cryptography domain with cuPQC now
accessible in an open beta release is particularly important in
this global effort, as cyberattacks on data and networks are
growing exponentially every year.”
Unleashing Unprecedented Speeds with Hopper and cuPQC
In groundbreaking benchmarks, cuPQC has already demonstrated
remarkable acceleration of Kyber, a leading candidate for securing
quantum-resistant keys, achieving speeds multiple times faster on
an NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPU than on traditional CPU benchmarks.
The forthcoming NVIDIA Blackwell architecture GPUs are optimized
for the intricate integer mathematics pivotal in cryptography and
aim to amplify this acceleration.
