Vancouver, BC – June 26, 2025 – USA News Group News Commentary – As global tensions escalate, cybersecurity experts are sounding alarms over a wave of increasingly sophisticated digital threats. U.S. officials have flagged Iran as a rising source of hostile cyber activity, echoing broader concerns from the Department of Homeland Security. Meanwhile, real-world attacks continue to mount—including the recent breach of Glasgow City Council in Scotland and coordinated hits on major U.S. insurers like Aflac. Adding to the urgency, the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) has released a report titled Quantum Computing: Leadership Needed to Coordinate Cyber Threat Mitigation Strategy, warning that quantum technology in the wrong hands could dismantle today’s encryption standards. In response, tech innovators are pushing forward with new security architectures, with recent moves from Scope Technologies Corp. (CSE: SCPE) (OTCQB: SCPCF), Zscaler, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZS), Commvault Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CVLT), Kyndryl Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: KD), and CyberCatch Holdings, Inc. (TSXV: CYBE) (OTCQB: CYBHF).
Analysts at Grand View Research forecast the post-quantum cryptography market to grow at a 37.6% annual rate through 2030, while Research and Markets expects it to climb even faster, projecting a CAGR of 41.47% and a total market size of US$17.69 billion by the end of the decade. As adoption accelerates, the shift is already opening new entry points for retail investors.
Scope Technologies Corp. (CSE: SCPE) (OTCQB: SCPCF) has been invited to present at DEF CON 33’s Quantum Village this August in Las Vegas—an announcement that places the company in rare company among post-quantum security innovators.
The session, titled “Quantum Malware: The Emerging Threat Landscape of Post-Quantum Cryptographic Exploits,” will be delivered by newly appointed CEO Ted Carefoot, and will explore how quantum algorithms like Shor’s and Grover’s are enabling the next generation of malware. Topics include real-time session hijacking, Grover-powered brute-force password cracking, AI model poisoning, and crypto wallet keybreaking—all reimagined through the lens of quantum computing.
“This isn’t theoretical anymore,” said Carefoot. “Quantum-powered adversaries will soon be able to bypass encryption, hijack sessions, and poison AI classifiers at a pace defenders have never seen. Our goal at DEFCON is to help the security community understand these risks and how they may impact their current cryptographic systems”
The DEF CON announcement follows Carefoot’s recent elevation to CEO, after previously serving as Scope’s VP of Product. With past cybersecurity leadership roles at Electronic Arts and Disney Online Studios, and certifications in Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC), Integrated Data Privacy, and RMF implementation, Carefoot brings deep technical credibility to the company’s next phase.
The company’s flagship platform, QSE (Quantum Security Entropy), combines decentralized encrypted cloud storage with true quantum entropy generation, providing a scalable defense against modern and next-generation threats. QSE features include round-trip encryption, zero-trust architecture, HIPAA-aligned compliance, and no metadata retention—designed specifically to neutralize the “harvest now, decrypt later” risk increasingly flagged by industry experts and government agencies. Internal benchmarks indicate that QSE can handle millions of encrypted messages per second, combining the scale of high-volume platforms with end-to-end quantum-resistant encryption.
Earlier this year, Scope completed significant upgrades to the QSE platform to improve performance, redundancy, and cross-platform load balancing. A brand and interface relaunch for QSE Group followed shortly after, making the platform more accessible to enterprise clients and white-label partners through tools like the Quantum Preparedness Assessment (QPA). The upcoming QSE Mobile App will bring the platform’s core encryption and secure messaging features to iOS and Android, including support for regulated verticals like healthcare, legal, and financial services.
Scope’s growing ecosystem also includes international collaborations. The company recently joined forces with World Cyber Health (WCH), the global nonprofit behind Malware Village, to contribute QSE expertise to public and private sector readiness efforts. The company has also expanded its enterprise distribution reach, including reseller agreements with Asia-Pacific distributor COGITO and Swedish Microsoft partner Coegi Cloud AB—together opening access to more than 40,000 institutional users.
On the capital side, Scope completed a $2.8 million raise earlier this year, backed in part by First Majestic Silver Corp., a former pilot customer that has since become a strategic investor. The second tranche closed in April and will fund client onboarding, mobile development, and continued scaling of the company’s infrastructure and partner channels.
With analysts projecting post-quantum cryptography to become a multi-billion-dollar market before 2030, Scope’s early positioning as a purpose-built, quantum-resilient platform is drawing increasing attention. Its invitation to DEF CON’s Quantum Village isn’t just a validation of technical leadership—it’s a signal that the broader security community is beginning to prioritize the very challenges QSE was designed to solve.
