Quantum Computing Inc Appoints Security and Cryptography Expert Brian LaMacchia to Technical Advisory Board - Seite 2

Dr. LaMacchia commented, “There is a worldwide transition currently underway towards quantum resistant public-key cryptography. The US government recently announced its first set of quantum- resistant cryptographic algorithms for standardization, and they along with foreign governments and industry are now actively working on updating widely used security protocols to include these new algorithms. Advances in quantum computing are accelerating, and photonic quantum systems are proving to be the most promising with near term positive impact on the security of our existing classical systems. It is my opinion that photonic quantum technologies are the preferred methodology due to its speed, complex solving capabilities, ability to execute today within a conventional environment, and importantly, significant security advancements. I consider QCI to be the most developed participant in this discipline with a clear path towards commercialization of multiple product launches. I look forward to advising QCI on the development and strategic positioning of this vital, timely technology, including its many applications to cryptography and computer security.”

Robert Liscouski, CEO of Quantum Computing, Inc. welcomed Dr. LaMacchia to the QCI team and stated, “To have the caliber of people joining us such as Dr. LaMacchia is a testament to the bright future of QCI and the work we have been doing in quantum computing in general and quantum cyber security applications, specifically. It is imperative that we stay in the forefront of all the advances in quantum methodologies to ensure total network security with zero data compromise for all upcoming enhancements in computing capabilities. We believe that our photonic quantum approach gives us a significant lead and agility to react to industry developments while our advisory team provides us with market intelligence as well as sound strategies to successfully navigate the rapidly emerging opportunities for our products and services. Dr. LaMacchia is a highly active thought leader in all levels of computer security, well versed in commercial trends and best practices. I welcome his insights, advise, and network.”
