Security Commitment

At QuantumSecure, security is not just a feature—it's the foundation of everything we do. As a post-quantum certificate authority, we understand that our customers trust us with their most critical cryptographic infrastructure. This responsibility drives our commitment to implementing and maintaining the highest security standards in the industry.

Our security program is built on defense-in-depth principles, incorporating multiple layers of protection across people, processes, and technology. We continuously evolve our security posture to address emerging threats and maintain our position as a leader in quantum-safe cryptographic services.

Incident Response Process

1

Detection

< 5 minutes

Automated monitoring systems and security tools continuously scan for threats and anomalies.

2

Analysis

< 15 minutes

Security analysts investigate alerts to determine if a genuine security incident has occurred.

3

Containment

< 30 minutes

Immediate actions are taken to contain the incident and prevent further damage or data loss.

4

Eradication

< 2 hours

The root cause is identified and eliminated from the environment to prevent recurrence.

5

Recovery

< 4 hours

Systems are restored to normal operation with enhanced monitoring and validation.

6

Lessons Learned

< 48 hours

Post-incident review to improve security measures and response procedures.

Vulnerability Management

We maintain a comprehensive vulnerability management program to identify, assess, and remediate security vulnerabilities across our infrastructure and applications.

Continuous vulnerability scanning of all systems and applications
Risk-based prioritization of vulnerability remediation
Regular penetration testing by third-party security firms
Bug bounty program with responsible disclosure process
Automated patch management for operating systems and applications
Security code reviews for all software development

Security Issue Reporting

We take security vulnerabilities seriously and encourage responsible disclosure. If you discover a security issue in our systems or services, please report it to our security team immediately through our responsible disclosure program.
