NEW YORK, Aug. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — American News Group News Commentary – The encryption that quietly protects the modern world, banking, identity, government records, private communications, was built on a bet: that the math underneath it would take longer to break than the secrets it guards need to stay safe. Quantum computing is threatening to collapse that bet. As the technology advances toward the point where it could unwind the public-key cryptography in use everywhere today, governments and standards bodies have stopped treating the shift to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) as a future research problem and started writing it into deadlines, mandates, and procurement rules. The result is a fast-forming market built around a single question thousands of organizations now have to answer: where does our cryptography live, how exposed is it, and how do we move to quantum-safe systems before it is too late.

Quantum Secure Encryption Corp. (CSE: QSE) (OTCQB: QSEGF) (FSE: VN80), a post-quantum cybersecurity company focused on quantum-resilient data protection, identity security, secure storage and cryptographic migration readiness, announced that it has entered a strategic partnership with Pos Digicert to help Malaysian organizations assess, understand and strengthen their readiness for the transition to post-quantum cryptography.

According to the company’s release, the collaboration combines Pos Digicert’s longstanding expertise in PKI, digital certificates, digital identity and trusted digital services with QSE’s quantum-readiness technology and cryptographic-risk expertise. QSE’s suite, which the company identifies as QPrime, QScope, QSim and QGuard, is designed to help organizations assess their cybersecurity and cryptographic posture, identify areas of exposure, prioritize risks and develop structured improvement roadmaps.
