Decent Cybersecurity in the PQ-REACT Open Call

PQ-REACT Open Call

We are thrilled to announce that Decent Cybersecurity, as one of the winners of the PQ-REACT Open Call #1: DEVELOP, has been a part of a meet and greet interview. This prestigious recognition highlights our commitment to advancing post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and strengthening cybersecurity resilience in critical infrastructure.

What is PQ-REACT?

The PQ-REACT project, part of the Horizon Europe initiative, aims to accelerate the development and adoption of quantum-resistant security solutions. As quantum computing advances, traditional cryptographic methods become increasingly vulnerable. PQ-REACT fosters innovation to ensure secure digital environments in the post-quantum era.

Our Winning Use Case: CRISP-Q

Decent Cybersecurity was awarded for its groundbreaking project, CRISP-Q (Cryptographic Resilience Implementation for Secure Post-Quantum Systems). This initiative delivers a robust framework for implementing FIPS 203-compliant PQC across IT and OT environments. CRISP-Q focuses on:

  • Performance-optimized cryptographic protocols for real-world applications.
  • Automated migration tools to streamline the transition to PQC.
  • Security audits and benchmarking suites to validate implementations.
  • Educational resources to facilitate widespread adoption across critical sectors.

The Impact

Winning this award reinforces our position as a leader in post-quantum cybersecurity. It enables us to:

  1. Collaborate with top European innovators in the cybersecurity landscape.
  2. Advance cryptographic security measures for critical infrastructure.
  3. Ensure businesses are prepared for the post-quantum computing shift.

By participating in PQ-REACT, we contribute to the EU’s mission of securing digital assets against emerging cyber threats. Over the next six months, we will work to bring cutting-edge cryptographic solutions to life.

Our Journey Forward

Our journey has just begun! As we continue developing CRISP-Q, we are excited to explore its practical applications, refine its performance, and ensure seamless PQC integration into existing security frameworks. Stay tuned for project updates and key insights on how PQC is shaping the future of cybersecurity.
