The RSA Conference brings together leading experts from the cybersecurity industry to share best practices and discuss the latest developments in the field. QWERX is proud to have been chosen as a finalist for the Launch Pad, which will give the company a platform to showcase its next-generation solution to a global audience.
The three Launch Pad finalists will present their pitches at the RSA Conference 2023 in front of a panel of experienced investors for strategy advice and community awareness. This opportunity will provide QWERX with invaluable exposure and further solidify its position as a leader in the machine authentication and identity management space.
“RSAC Launch Pad highlights the best new ideas coming out of early-stage startups, which is why being chosen is a testament to QWERX’s game-changing solution,” said Greg Cullison, CEO and co-founder of QWERX. “QWERX is honored to be named a finalist for the RSA Conference 2023 Launch Pad and we’re looking forward to showing everyone at RSA Conference how our patented technology revolutionizes the science of secure endpoint authentication.”
QWERX has developed a better, more secure way to authenticate devices to a network. The QWERX Enterprise Secure Perimeter (QESP) product increases machine identity security by eliminating static digital credentials and enforcing continuous verification of every device on a network. Static credentials (certificates and keys) are a frequent entry point for unauthorized network access, so QESP technology eliminates them completely. Instead, dynamic, ephemeral keys are generated locally and disappear at once after authentication. There are no static credentials stored to be stolen or misused. QESP also enhances security by enforcing continuous verification of every single device on a network. Following a Zero Trust approach, the protocol "mistrusts" all devices until they are authenticated. This verification process cycles repeatedly without end. QESP is a lightweight, cloud-native software that can secure IoT and does not require user involvement. QESP uses symmetric key cryptography for elevated security and has been assessed by a U.S. Government research center to be quantum-proof. QESP solves critical risk areas in machine identity management for today, and tomorrow.
