Mattermost and Qrypt have announced a joint solution for quantum-secure communications, unveiled at the 2025 DoD Cybersecurity & SAP IT Summit. This collaboration aims to safeguard defense, intelligence, and critical infrastructure communications against emerging cyber threats, including quantum computing and AI-driven cryptanalysis.

With nation-state adversaries collecting encrypted data for future decryption, the partnership ensures a continuous transition to quantum-secure protocols. Qrypt’s quantum entropy-based encryption strengthens long-term data security, while Mattermost’s secure collaboration platform enhances resilience against cyber threats. The solution offers future-proof encryption, crypto-agility, and robust defense against data interception and manipulation.

Mattermost’s Principal Product Manager, Dr. Bill Anderson, highlighted the urgent need for proactive encryption measures against “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks. Qrypt CEO Kevin Chalker emphasized the rising risks posed by AI in quantum cryptanalysis and the necessity of advanced encryption solutions for national security. This partnership equips defense and intelligence agencies with mission-critical security tools, ensuring classified communications remain protected against evolving cyber threats.
