The convergence of Quantum with AI
QuSecure is a post-quantum cybersecurity company that develops software to help organizations migrate to quantum-resistant cryptography. Its platform, QuProtect, uses a crypto-agile architecture to layer NIST-standardized post-quantum algorithms over existing security infrastructure, enabling a transition without replacing systems. In a field of early-stage post-quantum security startups, QuSecure focuses on enterprise and government deployments.

QuSecure’s QuProtect R3 was assessed at Technology Readiness Level 7 during the U.S. Army’s Project Convergence Capstone 6 exercise. The demonstration involved secure communications for Army tactical systems using post-quantum cryptography.
TRL 7 validation opens a path for QuSecure to reach TRL 8 or 9 and for the U.S. Army to begin fielding PQC-protected tactical communications within about two years.
QuSecure announced that its QuProtect R3 post-quantum cryptography platform reached Technology Readiness Level 7 during the U.S. Army's Project Convergence Capstone 6 at Fort Irwin's National Training Center. The live-force exercise evaluated the platform in tactical scenarios under combat-like conditions to assess operational readiness.
A successful TRL-7 assessment could position QuProtect R3 for inclusion in U.S. Army tactical network modernization programs, moving post-quantum cryptography from field experimentation toward funded deployment within the next two years.
