Deep-tech · Hardware & Quantum Sensing

Security built for the quantum era, not just the classical one.

PQFense designs post quantum cryptography (PQC) hardware and quantum sensing systems — including Quantum Lidar — engineered to stay trustworthy long after today's encryption stops being enough.

Why now

Data encrypted today can be decrypted tomorrow.

Adversaries are already running "harvest now, decrypt later" operations — capturing today's encrypted traffic to unlock once large-scale quantum computers arrive. Classical RSA and elliptic-curve cryptography, the backbone of nearly all current security hardware, won't survive that transition.

PQFense builds the physical layer of the answer: silicon that implements lattice-based post-quantum algorithms without leaking secrets through power or electromagnetic side channels, and sensing systems that use quantum light itself as a security and precision advantage.

RISK
Harvest now, decrypt later — encrypted data intercepted today is stored for future decryption.
SHIFT
NIST-standardized lattice algorithms (ML-KEM, ML-DSA) are replacing RSA/ECC across new hardware designs.
GAP
Most PQC implementations remain vulnerable to side-channel attacks — the algorithm is safe, the chip isn't.
Focus areas

Quantum hardware, sensing and security — one team.

PQFense works at the intersection of quantum hardware, quantum sensing, quantum AI and post quantum cryptography (PQC) — built against NIST post-quantum standards and India's TEC quantum technology standards.
