Cybersecurity firm Post-Quantum in tie-up with ‘world’s largest’ financial services network

London-based cybersecurity business Post-Quantum has entered into a partnership with global financial services communications firm IPC that will bring biometric and blockchain security to IPC’s network.

The UK startup, which recently closed an £8m Series A funding round, will work with IPC to integrate its defence-grade biometric authentication and fraud deterrence tech with the US firm’s Connexus Cloud ecosystem.

Connexus Cloud is billed as the ‘world’s largest’, secure financial services communications network, boasting 200,000 users and encompassing 700 cities.

Andersen Cheng, Chief Executive Officer at Post-Quantum said: “Working with IPC enables us to bring our defense-grade security systems to a greater number of users, enabling them to incorporate advanced security techniques easily and quickly to protect their critical infrastructure and highly sensitive data and to increase the overall level of security in the world’s financial services sector.”

Tim Carmody, IPC Vice President of Product and Engineering of the Financial Market Network commented: “We are excited to be partnering with Post-Quantum, an innovator in advanced biometric, encryption and blockchain technologies.

“Post-Quantum offering these technologies as a service in the IPC ecosystem not only streamlines the ability to integrate biometric, advanced encryption and blockchain technologies into IPC’s solutions, but also makes them available for any providers or customers on IPC’s Connexus Cloud, in a manner designed to be compliant and efficient while mitigating risk.”
