Quantropi QiSpace QEEP (Quantum-Secure Encryption for Embedded Platforms) is a symmetric encryption library built on Quantropi's Quantum Permutation Pad (QPP) technology. Core function: - Provides symmetric encryption that extends key lengths beyond the current 256-bit limit used in conventional algorithms - Designed to achieve Shannon Perfect Secrecy, a theoretical standard for information-theoretic security Quantum resistance: - Engineered to remain secure against attacks from future quantum computers - Addresses the vulnerability of current symmetric encryption standards to quantum computing advances Performance characteristics: - Benchmarked at up to 18x faster than AES-256 in testing - Designed for low-latency use cases such as connected and autonomous vehicles Resource efficiency: - Small code footprint with low computing requirements - Targeted at resource-constrained environments including IoT and OT devices FIPS compliance: - Can be combined with AES in a FIPS-compliant configuration - This combined approach provides defense-in-depth with minimal performance overhead Use cases: - IoT and OT device encryption - Connected and autonomous vehicles - Any environment requiring low-latency, quantum-resistant symmetric encryption
