Megaport demos quantum-secure transmission with Qrypt

Megaport has demonstrated the  ability to transmit data using quantum-secure methods powered by quantum key generation technology from Qrypt, a start-up based in New York City.

In the demo file-sharing applications were launched across several global data centers, including AWS in San Francisco, Azure US East in Virginia, and Google Cloud in Tokyo, using Megaport's Network-as-a-Service platform. 

“Demonstrating quantum-secure connectivity across regions and services is just another example of how Megaport is the best place to network for the most sensitive workloads in the cloud,” said Jim Brinksma, CTO of Megaport. “Megaport is always deepening its understanding of the cybersecurity challenges institutions will face for their most demanding, mission-critical applications.”

“Qrypt is dedicated to securing the world’s data and privacy,” said Denis Mandich, CTO of Qrypt. “With this deployment we demonstrate that you can not only gain quantum security fast, but you can start today and eliminate risk now.”
