QMill™ Quantum Powered Security

Quantum computers will eventually break the encryption we rely on today. However, as quantum computing advances, so does its potential to protect sensitive data. QMill is building a new paradigm for quantum-safe security, powered by quantum computing itself.

Secure communication relies on two steps: exchanging a secret key, then using that key to protect the actual communication. QMill strengthens both.

• Verified randomness: Every cryptographic key depends on random numbers, but that randomness is rarely verifiable. QMill's algorithms generate verified random numbers using the inherent randomness of quantum mechanics and verifies them using light classical computing. The result is randomness that is both quantum grade and easy to audit without any assumptions on the physical device that generated the results.
• Quantum-powered key establishment: Post-quantum algorithms are a major step forward, but they are new, and the current key encapsulation schemes rest on a small number of closely related mathematical problems. QMill has built a key establishment mechanism that is based on a fundamentally different problem and quantum computing to establish the keys. It can run standalone or in concert with other post-quantum cryptographic primitives, guaranteeing an additional layer of protection built for security-critical use cases.
