The digital world is on the brink of a seismic shift. The rise of quantum computing promises unprecedented processing power, but it also casts a long shadow over our current security standards. How do we protect our data in an era where today’s encryption can be shattered in moments? In a recent episode of “The Triple Take,” we sat down with TripleCyber’s CEO and founder, Manny Rivera, and Lead Engineer, Andy Bruce, to discuss this very challenge. They unveiled the company’s groundbreaking solution, TripleQuantum PKI, and explained why the future of digital security lies in post-quantum cryptography.
What is Post-Quantum Cryptography and Why Does it Matter?
Before we can secure the future, we must understand the threat. Classical computers store information as bits—either a 0 or a 1. Quantum computers use “qubits,” which can be a 0, a 1, or both simultaneously.
As Lead Engineer Andy Bruce explains, this fundamental difference has massive implications. “With qubits, you can take groups of them and actually solve different mathematical problems simultaneously, which you cannot do with a classical computer.”
This parallel processing power makes quantum computers a skeleton key for current encryption methods. “If you have a powerful enough computer… you can crack any code that we have,” Bruce warns.
This is where post-quantum cryptography comes in. It involves creating new cryptographic algorithms that are secure against attacks from both classical and quantum computers. The goal is to develop solutions so complex that breaking them would take, as Bruce puts it, “until the heat death of the universe.”
The Problem with Traditional PKI: A Case for a Certificate-less Future
For decades, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) has been the standard for securing online communications. It uses digital certificates to verify identities and encrypt data. However, this system is cumbersome, expensive, and ill-equipped for the quantum age.
“I spend thousands and thousands of dollars on a yearly basis just doing certificates,” says CEO Manny Rivera. “For my code, for protecting my website, for protecting almost anything.”
The process is a constant cycle of purchasing, validating, and renewing certificates from a central authority. This creates bottlenecks and adds significant overhead. The rise of blockchain technology has already proven that secure, large-scale transactions are possible without this rigid framework.
Introducing TripleQuantum PKI: A New Era of Post-Quantum Cryptography
TripleCyber’s answer to these challenges is TripleQuantum PKI—a solution designed for speed, efficiency, and security in the post-quantum world. The most revolutionary aspect? It’s completely certificate-less.
Instead of relying on costly certificates, TripleQuantum PKI leverages a proprietary blockchain technology called “TripleChain.” Here’s how it works:
- Identity-Based: Your identity is your key. Users are validated through robust “Know Your Customer” processes or government IDs, establishing a trusted foundation.
- Decentralized Trust: Public keys are stored on the immutable TripleChain, while the private key remains with the user.
- Simplified Revocation: If a key is compromised, it can be instantly invalidated through a managed revocation system, eliminating the complex and slow processes of traditional PKI.
The Visionaries Behind the Tech: Shaping the Future of Post-Quantum Cryptography
The innovation at TripleCyber is driven by deep expertise and a long-standing collaborative relationship. CEO Manny Rivera, a former Army Major and Chief Architect, first met Lead Engineer Andy Bruce nearly two decades ago while working on service-oriented architecture for the U.S. Army.
This long history of shared vision and technical collaboration has been the driving force behind the company’s forward-thinking approach to security. “I couldn’t have a better Chief Engineer on the team than Andy,” Rivera notes. It’s this partnership that is now tackling one of the most critical challenges in modern technology: the transition to post-quantum cryptography.
Your Questions on Post-Quantum Cryptography Answered
The emergence of quantum computers poses a direct threat to our current cryptographic standards, like RSA and ECC. As Lead Engineer Andy Bruce explained, a powerful quantum computer can “crack any code that we have” because it can solve multiple mathematical problems simultaneously. To protect our data long-term, we must adopt new algorithms resistant to these quantum attacks.
The primary issues with traditional, certificate-based PKI are cost and complexity. According to CEO Manny Rivera, it requires spending “thousands and thousands of dollars on a yearly basis” for certificates. Furthermore, the process of issuance, validation, and renewal through a central authority is slow and cumbersome. This creates significant financial and operational overhead for businesses.
TripleQuantum PKI replaces certificates with a system based on verified identity and a proprietary blockchain called “TripleChain.” A user’s identity is verified to a high degree of assurance. Their public key is registered on the immutable TripleChain, while their private key remains in their sole possession. This model, inspired by blockchain technology, provides robust security and clear proof of ownership without the need for a traditional certificate.
While acknowledging that “there’s a lot of infrastructure already there,” CEO Manny Rivera is confident in adoption. He points to the fact that “billions of dollars are being exchanged through the blockchain right now… and it’s working fine without a certificate.” With major financial players like Visa and MasterCard already moving to accept Bitcoin, the certificate-less model has proven its viability and effectiveness at a massive scale.
TripleCyber is preparing to release its API library for TripleQuantum PKI to the public in the coming weeks. Lead Engineer Andy Bruce confirmed, “We have complete reference guides that describe at a very technical, very detailed level, exactly how to use the APIs.” Developers will be encouraged to test the system, validate its strength, and begin integrating it into their own applications.
Get Started with Post-Quantum Cryptography: APIs and the Road Ahead
The transition to a quantum-resistant world is not a distant dream; it’s happening now. TripleCyber is at the forefront, using its own solutions internally to secure its applications.
The next step is to empower the community. “In the next two or three weeks, we’ll probably be releasing the main TripleQuantum library with all the documentation,” Rivera announced. This will give developers and integrators the tools they need to test, validate, and build with the security of tomorrow.
The age of quantum computing is dawning. With forward-thinking solutions like TripleQuantum PKI, we can meet its challenges head-on and continue to TripleEnable the Internet.
