Arqit joins Fortinet Fabric-Ready Partner Programme

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 15 (Bernama) -- Arqit, a leader in quantum-safe encryption, has joined the Fortinet Fabric-Ready Partner Programme as a Technology Alliance Partner.

The Fortinet Fabric-Ready Partner Programme provides partners with programme infrastructure, resources, and tools to integrate with the Security Fabric and develop joint solutions as part of the Fortinet Open Ecosystem.

The company has also completed its first integration between Arqit QuantumCloud and Fortinet’s FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs).

Arqit founder, chairman and chief executive officer, David Williams said in a statement that the company is excited to leverage its integration to deliver enhanced protection against sophisticated cyber attacks for customers.

“In conjunction with Fortinet’s industry-leading NGFWs, our strong, simple encryption enables governments and enterprises to realise stronger protection against cyber threats, and take a major step forward in removing the quantum threat from their risk registers,” he added.

Arqit’s QuantumCloud is the world’s first fully scalable cloud-based symmetric key agreement platform, capable of creating zero-trust quantum-safe encryption keys on any device.

By integrating QuantumCloud with NGFWs, the resulting solution enables unbreakable quantum-safe encrypted connectivity between customer locations, keeping safe data both at rest and in transit.

Arqit’s QuantumCloud uses unique symmetric key agreement software to provide quantum-safe keys which are consumed by Fortinet devices during the formation of secure tunnels.
