We are not the first ones to address the topic of post-quantum cryptography (PQC). What makes SeQure unique is the specific Software-as-a-Service offering tailored to the needs of the financial services and utilities sectors in Switzerland.
Customers benefit from the years of dedicated know-how and hands-on experience in running SaaS operations for large banks and financial sector digitally-integrated corporates in Switzerland, the UK and the US.
We walk customers through solutions and steps specific to the industry and company, filtering out the noise and complexity. The transition is divided into actionable steps within reasonably quick time frames while minimizing resource needs on the customer side.
We offer a multi-dimensional risk tool enhanced with AI models to correlate risk data on cryptography very specific to your business and industry. It uses your specific Network and Infrastructure Topology, import from existing Vulnerability Scanners, 3 Risk models for Business, Finance and IT risk evaluation, Quantum Computer Readiness Timelines.
The tool AI is built with 20+ years of hands on cybersecurity knowhow for Swiss financial services industry.
Our tool is unique in helping you find needles in your cryptographic haystack, so you can understand "How", "Where to begin", "How long" and not only the "What" that everyone else talks about.
Havest now, decrypt later (HNDL) is probably the most critical immediate risk all banks and financial institutions are facing, as hackers can or are already downloading data-in-flight using sniffing tools, to decrypt in a few years once fault-tolerant, cryptography relevant quantum computers are available. Your sensitive data is probably then still legally valid.
The sooner you protect, the lower is your risk probability against this risk.
A huge complication is what to do with legacy applications which are quite old, developers are gone, but are still critical to your operations. Migrating or enhancing them is not easy and you are struggling to find a way to deal with protecting them against quantum threats.
Allow us to show you a smart way to handle this problem.
We provide quantum safe encryption options based on risk analysis and existing constraints considering your current infrastructure, already planned future upgrades, vendor consideration and so on, to ensure smooth migration as well as functional and performant coexistence phase.
Our migration strategy does not pre-maturely conclude use of PQC, but the most appropriate solution considering your specific requirements and state of cryptographic asset infrastructure.
However, where PQC algorithms is a must, we work with some of the most trusted and respected PQC partners, to offer you the optimum solution. We take diligent care in providing strictly crypto-agile PQC implementation to ensure we do it once and any future changes are easy, quick and cost-efficient.
While we expect most customers in financial services sectors, due to current regulation and audit requirements, are likely to have an inventory of cryptographic assets as part of overall infrastructure inventory.
However, we also recognize that daily business realities, resource constraints, operational and budget challenges make it difficult to have the inventory fully up-to-date or cover all aspects of infrastructure especially with all dependencies.
Therefore, we have built a Crawler to complete your current gaps in cryptographic inventory. The Crawler works fully on your premise, under watch and guidance of your internal IT and security experts, to uncover all cryptographic assets so that your risk analysis happens on a valid and actual basis.
All data remains on-premise with you and every action of crawling is extensively logged to traceability.
We recommend considering these solutions in phase 2 of your migration project once you have secured critical risk clusters and if you have multi-site operations where you distribute vital information like keys or certificates.
We offer these solutions to you in partnership with some leading Swiss (as well as international) specialist solution providers for :
These solutions are provided on-premise or as a fully managed hosted service. We will be happy to discuss further details with you.
There is a lot of research and measured evidence suggesting the superiority of results (accuracy, performance, discovery of new patters and correlations) in certain algorithms when they are run on Quantum Computers, stand-alone or in a hybrid model, compared to classical computers. We are working on a few key ones for the financial industry. We are partnering with Quantum researchers from a leading Swiss University to work on some key value add algorithms for the financial services industry. We are working in the following key areas:
