IronCAP Challenges Top Hackers with Availability of New “Quantum Safe” API
01 Communique Laboratory Inc. (TSXV: ONE) (the “Company”) has reached a major milestone with the launch of the IronCAP Application Program Interface (“API”). IronCAP’s patent-pending cryptographic system provides users with an increased level of security protecting them not only today, but also in the future as powerful quantum computers become available. The IronCAP API can be used by vendors, for example, to build highly secure “post-quantum” systems for blockchain, 5G/IoT, data storage, remote access/VPN, encryption, digital signing etc. using the standard PKCS#11 and OpenPGP formats. It is available today. Visit the Company’s web site at www.ironcap.ca for details.
Coming shortly IronCAP’s “quantum safe” claims will be tested with a public Hackathon. Participants from around the globe will be welcome to challenge IronCAP’s cryptography in exchange for a monetary prize. To give participants as much flexibility as possible they will be allowed the use of any tool of their choice including the classical computers of today as well as the new breed of quantum computers. Stay tuned as the IronCAP Hackathon is planned for the Company’s fourth quarter which ends October 31st with full details including prize money amount to be released before it starts.
Cyber-attacks have skyrocketed over the past decade. According to the 2018 report by the Standing Senate Committee on Banking, Trade and Commerce, in 2017 there were over 10 million Canadians, whose personal information was compromised through targeted cyber-attacks and cyber operations directed against businesses that hold Canadians’ private information. Globally, there were 978 million victims of cybercrime across 20 countries, with China, US, UK, Canada and Australia leading the pack.
“We built IronCAP API and related products due to the rise of cyber-attacks and the coming threat of quantum computers. Cyber-attacks by bad actors and nation states are commonplace headline news today,” said Andrew Cheung, President and CEO of 01 Communique. “With the coming introduction of powerful quantum computers and their potential to crack standard encryption methods in place today it is only a matter of time before they create havoc in the cyber world. It is estimated that a super computer of today would take over 100 CPU years to crack current standard encryption methods while it is estimated a powerful quantum computer can complete this task in a matter of minutes.”

UNICC and ShelterZoom Developed a Secure Document Tracking and E-Signature Solution for the UN System
The United Nations International Computing Center (UNICC) and ShelterZoom are pleased to announce a new innovative blockchain-based solution for controlling and protecting the digital data of UN entities and other international organizations. As the largest strategic partner for digital solutions and cybersecurity within the UN system, UNICC has partnered with ShelterZoom, a leading data and content protection and ownership SaaS company behind innovations such as Document Token® technology and Document GPS®.
Building upon the 50 years of experienced innovation from the UNICC, the two organizations collaborated on a transformational undertaking offering robust protection and promising increased productivity for document tracking and management. ShelterZoom will contribute its proprietary document tokenization technology, along with its data protection, document tracking and e-signature solutions to deliver a white-labeled platform, giving member organizations a greater level of governance over their content. Using ShelterZoom’s flagship proprietary Single Source Of Truth® technology, the solution provides a means for each file to be protected individually without changing user normal habits instead of having to rely solely on protecting files at the database level. This ‘singularity and control’ is a new era in cybersecurity and document management, which has never been seen before at this level of seamless integration with existing tools.
“The synergy between what we deliver and the goals of the United Nations are a perfect match for Single Source Of Truth,” said Chao Cheng-Shorland, CEO and Cofounder of ShelterZoom. “We have said from the beginning that it is time to think about cybersecurity in a completely new way and in doing so we have created a solution to address other operational pain points while simultaneously solving one of the biggest challenges facing the global population today. The UN is at the frontlines of changing the world for the better and its forward-thinking approach to using technology to address fundamental issues is critical in improving livelihoods for all.”
ShelterZoom solutions have already been in use across dozens of industries and with this new commercial partnership, they can now extend their usefulness to the UN family and other international organizations. The revolutionary method for complete document tracking with built-in productivity tools, such as digital signatures and a market-first method for organizing files inside email, is an all-in-one solution built for a global workforce. The Single Source of Truth model has the added benefit of decreasing the carbon footprint created by excessive digital waste, further supporting the sustainability goals of the United Nations.
“The need for robust cybersecurity and data protection has never been greater,” said Sameer Chauhan, Director of UNICC. “By working together with ShelterZoom, we have developed a cutting-edge tool tailored to the needs of the UN family. Our unwavering commitment to providing best-in-class solutions ensures we continue to support the digital transformation and modernization of the UN system and other international organizations.”
