QuSecure Joins the AWS Global Startup Program

As AWS Global Startup Program’s Only PQC Member, QuSecure Expands Reach and Capabilities with AWS to Bring Singular Orchestrated Cryptographic Agile Cybersecurity Solution to Public and Private Sectors

SAN MATEO, Calif. — Nov. 9, 2023 — QuSecure™, Inc., a leader in post-quantum cryptography (PQC), today announced that it has joined the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Global Startup program, an invite-only, go-to-market program supporting mid-to-late stage startups that have raised institutional funding, achieved product-market fit, and are ready to scale. Joining this prestigious program further recognizes QuSecure as a validated AWS Partner, fast-tracking QuSecure’s flagship product, QuProtect™ toward a co-selling program helping to address an immediate need around PQC protection for commercial and federal organizations.

To be selected for the AWS Global Startup program, QuSecure had to meet predefined criteria, including a clear, demonstrated product market fit for an innovative enterprise technology product, and demonstrate a strategic commitment to building its AWS and cloud expertise. As a result, QuSecure is the only PQC company selected for the AWS Global Startup program, due to its ability to orchestrate NIST-approved PQC algorithms using cryptographic agility.

The AWS Global Startup program enables qualifying startups to gain product design wins, visibility, exposure, leads, and commercial opportunities made possible with exclusive AWS Partner Network (APN) resources. These resources include dedicated Startup Partner Development Managers (PDM) with deep AWS knowledge and startup business experience that guide startups in their growth journey with APN. By becoming a member of the AWS Global Startup program, QuSecure will receive benefits ranging from a tailor-made plan for mapping the needs and opportunities to a selection of AWS services and APN programs, promotion support to drive visibility and awareness around the startup offering, and resources to help QuSecure sell and deploy PQC solutions on behalf of AWS customers.
