QuSecure

QuSecure, a San Mateo, CA-based company which specializes in post-quantum cybersecurity, received an investment from Accenture Ventures.

The amount of the deal was not disclosed.

The company intends to use the funds to help government agencies and private sector businesses mitigate emerging quantum risks.

Founded in 2019 and led by CEO Rebecca Krauthamer, QuSecure provides the QuProtect software, which offers an end-to-end quantum security-as-a-service architecture that combines zero-trust, new quantum-resilient technology and crypto agility to protect networks, cloud systems, edge devices and satellite communications against today’s cyberattacks and future quantum threats.

In 2023, Accenture and QuSecure collaborated to establish the a multi-orbit data communications test secured with post-quantum cryptography (PQC), which refers to cryptographic methods that are secure against an attack by a quantum computer. Recently, Banco Sabadell completed a joint project with Accenture and QuSecure to explore the adoption of PQC technologies in the bank’s infrastructure.

The company will also join Accenture Ventures’ Project Spotlight, an engagement and investment program focused on working with companies that create or apply disruptive enterprise technologies.
