Xecure Enters Exclusive Agreement for Naoris Quantum Protocol, Advancing Next-Gen Quantum Security in Korea

Xecure is set to make a full-fledged entry into the domestic quantum security market through a partnership with Naoris Quantum Protocol, a next-generation digital infrastructure technology company. The company announced on April 14 that it has signed an exclusive license agreement for the technology in Korea, officially securing distribution and commercialization rights.

Along with this agreement, the two companies have established a joint venture called "Naoris Korea," in which Xecure holds a 51% stake, thereby laying the foundation for business operations. Leveraging this momentum, Xecure has introduced its "Xecure 2.0" vision, aiming to become a core player in the quantum-resistant security industry.

Naoris Protocol is a quantum-resistant security company that includes global experts from the security and IT sectors. Its technology is based on standard algorithms from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Notably, it possesses the world’s first decentralized cryptographic proof (DPosec) technology that integrates blockchain, and recently, it launched the "Sub-Zero Layer" mainnet to further enhance scalability and compatibility.

The company has already demonstrated its technological capabilities by recording over 100 million quantum-resistant transactions and blocking more than 600 million security threats in global test environments. In addition, it was mentioned as a reference model for "Post-Quantum Financial Infrastructure (PQFI)" in a report by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Founder and CEO David Carvalho is a former white-hat hacker and expert who has served as a cyber strategy advisor for NATO-affiliated organizations and various national governments, having led large-scale national security projects.

Chief Security Officer David Holtzman is also an iconic figure in the IT industry, known as an early architect of Internet DNS, with experience as a White House cybersecurity advisor and as a chief scientist at IBM. Venture investor Tim Draper, who invested early in companies such as Tesla, SpaceX, Skype, and Baidu, is also participating as an early investor and advisor.

Xecure plans to swiftly capture the market based on its existing security technological capabilities and experience in supplying USIM chips. As the company has already secured supply chains with the three major domestic mobile carriers and in the financial sector, it believes it is well-positioned to expand its quantum-resistant security business.

A company representative stated, "Quantum-resistant security is a critical challenge that must be addressed in the security industry and is a rapidly growing market. By combining the technological strengths gained through our collaboration with Naoris and our existing business foundation, we will lead the domestic market."

Currently, Xecure is conducting research and development related to quantum-resistant algorithms in various fields, including smart security USIM and eSIM, financial IC cards, and IoT platforms. Moving forward, the company plans to develop a quantum security SIM (PQC SIM) based on these technologies, advancing security enhancements and testing, particularly with existing clients.

The company also expects that decentralized cryptographic proof consensus algorithms will become a new paradigm in quantum-resistant security. With its verified technological capabilities and global network, Xecure plans to accelerate market expansion.
