FracQtion, a Hybrid Platform for Quantum-Safe Security, is launched by Partisia and Squareroot8.

The debut of FracQtion, a collaboratively built device intended to safeguard vital industries from the impending threat of quantum computing, was announced today, marking a significant advancement in global digital security. The platform is the outcome of a strategic partnership between Squareroot8 (SG), an innovation with a focus on quantum-safe hardware, and Partisia (DK), a world leader in cryptographic software. Alongside the announcement, a Joint Product Agreement was formally signed, demonstrating both companies’ dedication to addressing post-quantum security issues on a worldwide scale.

FracQtion was created especially to protect high-trust sectors against quantum decryption capabilities, such as telecoms and finance. Its hybrid network architecture, which blends the advantages of cutting-edge quantum technology and sophisticated cryptography, is the main innovation. By creating a quantum-resistant communication network, the final solution sets a new benchmark for security design that is sure to last.

Bridging the Gap: A Truly Hybrid Approach

Three separate but complimentary technologies Partisia’s Multi-Party Computation (MPC), Squareroot8‘s Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG), and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) are integrated to create FracQtion’s strong security. Both physical security and cryptographic control are provided by this synthesis.

Because of Partisia’s extensive knowledge of Multi-Party Computation, private, policy-driven processes are made possible, guaranteeing that access and identities are safeguarded even while data is being processed. MPC is a key component of Partisia, facilitating smooth collaboration and establishing digital trust without ever jeopardising important data. It enables businesses to easily navigate strict compliance while gaining important insights and forming valuable alliances.

The hardware contribution from Squareroot8 completes this software layer. Through a self-verifying engine, the incorporation of QRNG guarantees new, testable entropy. Squareroot8 provides industry-leading and reasonably priced quantum-safe communication devices and solutions based on QRNG and QKD by utilising patented technology. The hybrid network that forms the basis of FracQtion is created by combining these quantum components with MPC.

“Data fractioning” is FracQtion’s key operating characteristic. Sensitive information is divided and dispersed around a secure network using this proprietary technology, guaranteeing that no one entity ever has access to all of the information. This system offers vital protection against the risks that advanced computing poses now and in the future.

Addressing the ‘Harvest Now, Decrypt Later’ Threat

Because of the current threat landscape, which is often referred to as “harvest now, decrypt later,” institutions are at risk of attackers harvesting encrypted data today with the intention of decrypting it later once powerful quantum computers become widely available. This makes a solution like FracQtion necessary.

“The identity of who you’re communicating with and the security of that communication is paramount with the looming threat of quantum computing,” said Kurt Nielsen, CEO of Partisia, underscoring the product’s timeliness. Providing a strong, long-lasting defense against the ‘harvest now, decrypt later’ threat, this device is coming at the ideal moment. Only when two businesses collaborate can this technology and software combination produce a genuinely special miracle.

CIOs and CISOs have a modular route to quantum resilience with FracQtion. Most importantly, it enables organizations to protect private information from potential quantum decryption without having to replace their current systems. In contrast to systems that are “black boxes” made entirely of hardware or software, FracQtion offers a tiered architecture that is flexible, auditable, and prepared for the needs of the quantum era. Interoperability and changing compliance needs are integrated into it.

Squareroot8 CEO Cristofer Quek emphasized the collaboration’s synergy, saying, “This cooperation with Partisia goes beyond a standard integration. Quantum-safe random number generator is the ideal match for their extensive knowledge in multi-party computation. They are collaborated to create a system that provides an unparalleled degree of security, providing its clients with a defendable position against potential attacks that would be impossible for any one business to accomplish on its own.

Global Deployment and Singapore’s Innovation Hub Status

Financial institutions in Singapore and Europe are already participating in early trial deployments, demonstrating that the partnership has progressed beyond its first stages. The urgent need for systems that combine physical assurance and cryptographic control is reflected in these installations.

The launch increases Partisia’s footprint in Singapore’s strategic digital infrastructure, which encompasses telecoms, financial services, and vital systems.

Additionally, the research greatly strengthens Singapore’s developing position as a center for quantum innovation. As stated in the National Quantum Strategy (NQS), which is a component of the RIE2025 project, the development is in perfect accord with Singapore’s national priorities. With SGD 300 million committed to quantum research, talent development, and corporate partnerships, the NQS shows a strong commitment to building secure digital infrastructure.

For other digital economies across the world looking for scalable, quantum-safe infrastructure solutions, FracQtion’s launch in Singapore sets a standard. The strategic choice to establish this foundation for terrestrial high-trust industries comes after Squareroot8 successfully demonstrated earlier this year, in collaboration with NuSpace, how to combine quantum technology and advanced cryptography to enable secure communication via nanosatellite powered by QRNGs, utilising only a single-board device, even in operationally challenging environments.

FracQtion secures sensitive data connections by providing cryptographic and physical protection in a layered, quantum-resistant architecture. As international standards for quantum-safe communication continue to develop, FracQtion becomes an essential model.
