# QuSecure

> QuSecure is a San Mateo, California cybersecurity company that helps organizations defend against the threat that quantum computers pose to today's encryption. Its flagship platform, QuProtect, is a crypto-agility layer that discovers an organization's cryptographic assets and lets them migrate to NIST-standardized post-quantum cryptography without ripping out existing infrastructure or rewriting code. Founded in 2019 and led by CEO Rebecca Krauthamer, QuSecure has demonstrated quantum-resilient communications over live satellite links, won U.S. Army and Air Force contracts, and was named a 2026 World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer.

- **Founded:** 2019
- **Headquarters:** San Mateo, California, United States
- **Founders:** Rebecca Krauthamer (Co-founder & CEO (formerly Chief Product Officer)), Dave Krauthamer (Co-founder (former CEO)), Skip Sanzeri (Co-founder & COO / Chairman), Kosta Vilk (Co-founder)
- **Team size:** Approximately 53 employees
- **Products:** QuProtect, QuProtect R3, Cryptographic discovery & CBOM
- **Notable:** Accomplished the first known live, end-to-end quantum-resilient cryptographic communications satellite link through space (March 2023, via a Starlink satellite)., With Accenture, completed the first successful multi-orbit (LEO + GEO) data communications link secured with post-quantum cryptography (March 2023)., Awarded a U.S. Army SBIR Phase II contract (reported upward of $2M) for quantum-resilient software for tactical edge and IoT devices (2023).

## Products & services

- **QuProtect** — QuSecure's flagship crypto-agility platform. It discovers and inventories cryptographic assets, then enables migration to NIST-standardized post-quantum cryptography across networks, cloud, IoT, edge devices, and satellite links - without overhauling existing infrastructure or changing application code.
- **QuProtect R3** — The current generation of the platform, built on a modular, crypto-agile architecture providing centralized visibility, cryptographic discovery, remediation, orchestration, policy enforcement, and compliance reporting over an organization's cryptography.
- **Cryptographic discovery & CBOM** — Tooling to build a cryptographic inventory and Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM), giving security teams visibility into where and how cryptography is used so they can prioritize and track post-quantum readiness.
