PKWARE, in partnership with QuintessenceLabs, launched four virtual and hardware key management appliances as part of the company’s line of Smartcrypt appliances. These Smartcrpyt appliances are integrated with our Trusted Security Foundation® (TSF®) solution, which includes a high speed random number generator, an advanced key and policy manager and an embedded FIPS 140-2 Level 3 hardware security module for key storage.

QuintessenceLabs’ TSF® solution includes qStream™, a full-entropy true random number generator that delivers high quality encryption keys derived from a quantum source. The random nature of these keys makes them totally unpredictable and enables PKWARE to offer the strongest data encryption quality.

Moreover, the TSF provides advanced key and policy management capabilities with qCrypt™. The fully interoperable and flexible key and policy manger enables a centralized management of cryptographic objects with full lifecycle usage, policy control and advanced replication capabilities.

The partnership of PKWARE with QuintessenceLabs creates an enhanced and seamless enterprise level data protection solution right from key generation, management, and storage through to data focused encryption delivering an end-to-end encryption solution for the highest security.
