Accenture has made a strategic investment in QuSecure, a leader in post-quantum cybersecurity, through its investment arm, Accenture Ventures.

This collaboration aims to provide comprehensive post-quantum cybersecurity solutions, enabling government agencies and private businesses to mitigate the emerging risks posed by quantum computing.

San Mateo-based QuSecure, founded in 2019, offers QuProtect, an advanced quantum security-as-a-service platform. The solution integrates zero-trust architecture with next-generation quantum-resilient technology, safeguarding networks, cloud infrastructure, edge devices, and satellite communications with minimal disruption to existing systems.

Tom Patterson, emerging technology security lead at Accenture, said, “Organizations need a reliable, quantum-resilient cybersecurity solution that not only adheres to the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) post-quantum encryption standards but that can be easily integrated across all parts of a communications network.

“We’re investing in trusted providers like QuSecure to help our clients future-proof their global networks today to protect high-risk data faster.”

Rebecca Krauthamer, co-founder and CEO of QuSecure, highlighted the growing digital threats, stating, “The ability to orchestrate cryptography at the enterprise scale—swapping out cryptographic algorithms at any endpoint, anywhere—is critical to a robust cybersecurity strategy. QuSecure and Accenture have a shared vision to provide organizations with a long-term solution to upgrade and manage their encryption standards.”
