Fortinet and QuintessenceLabs: A Joint Solution for Quantum-Enhanced Cybersecurity

Quantum computing is rapidly evolving, and with it comes a fundamental shift in cybersecurity. While quantum technology offers incredible advancements, it also poses a serious risk to today’s encryption methods. To help organizations strengthen their defenses against emerging quantum threats, Fortinet and QuintessenceLabs have partnered to deliver a powerful, integrated security solution designed to fortify networks and protect sensitive data.

Why Quantum Security Matters Now

Cyber threats are evolving, and one of the most pressing challenges is Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL) attacks. In these attacks, cyber adversaries steal encrypted data today, with the intent to decrypt it in the future using quantum-powered capabilities. This puts long-term sensitive data—such as financial records, government communications, and intellectual property—at risk.

As quantum computing advances, organizations need to rethink how they secure cryptographic keys, protect infrastructure, and ensure their security measures remain effective in the post-quantum era.

A Future-Ready Security Approach

The Fortinet-QuintessenceLabs joint solution combines advanced network security with quantum-enhanced cryptography to help enterprises and government agencies take proactive steps toward quantum resilience.

• Quantum-Enhanced Cryptography – QuintessenceLabs provides high-speed Quantum Random Number Generation (QRNG) and entropy-as-a-service, delivering strong, unpredictable cryptographic keys to enhance data protection.
• Advanced Network Security – Fortinet’s FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs) offer real-time threat intelligence, adaptive protection, and seamless security for enterprise networks.
• Seamless Integration – Organizations can integrate quantum-enhanced security into their existing Fortinet infrastructure without requiring a complete overhaul, ensuring a smooth transition to quantum-safe encryption.

Strengthening Security Without Complexity

With this partnership, enterprises can build a quantum-resilient security posture without disrupting existing operations. The combined solution provides a future-proof approach, allowing businesses to:

• Secure sensitive data against quantum-enabled threats before they emerge
• Strengthen encryption with quantum-safe key generation
• Ensure business continuity by integrating quantum security seamlessly into existing cybersecurity frameworks

The quantum era is approaching fast, and cybersecurity must evolve to meet new challenges. By leveraging Fortinet and QuintessenceLabs’ joint solution, organizations can take meaningful steps toward protecting their critical assets—both today and in the quantum future.
