Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 31, 2026) - QSE – Quantum Secure Encryption Corp. (CSE: QSE) (OTCQB: QSEGF) (FSE: VN80) today announced the official launch of QPA v2, its enterprise post-quantum cryptographic (PQC) migration platform, marking a significant advancement in the Company's ability to support organizations transitioning toward quantum-resilient security architectures.

The release of QPA v2 reflects a broader shift within the cybersecurity landscape, as governments and enterprises move beyond awareness of quantum-related risks toward structured planning and execution of post-quantum migration strategies.

QPA v2 provides organizations with a comprehensive framework to evaluate, plan, and manage post-quantum cryptographic readiness across multiple dimensions, transforming what has traditionally been a fragmented, manual process into a structured, data-driven workflow.

The platform introduces a range of capabilities designed to support enterprise and government adoption, including:

• A structured PQC Planning Wizard supporting governance design, budgeting, timelines, and migration strategy development
• AI-enhanced assessment and questionnaire modules for evaluating cryptographic posture and compliance readiness
• Integrated inventory analysis capabilities covering software, hardware, and cryptographic components, enabling organizations to identify risk exposure across complex environments
• A centralized executive dashboard providing real-time visibility into quantum readiness, risk levels, and migration progress
• Integrated reporting tools supporting governance, audit, and internal decision-making processes

QPA v2 is now live and actively being utilized by both existing and prospective clients as organizations begin to formalize their approach to post-quantum security planning.

"Organizations are now moving from understanding quantum risk to actively planning for it," said Ted Carefoot, CEO of QSE. "QPA v2 is designed to support that transition by providing a structured, repeatable framework that enables enterprises and public-sector organizations to assess their current state, prioritize risk, and plan their migration toward post-quantum cryptographic standards."

The platform is designed to integrate with QSE's broader security ecosystem, including its qREK quantum-resilient key infrastructure, QAuth identity and authentication platform, and decentralized encrypted storage solutions, supporting a full-stack approach to long-term cryptographic resilience.

QSE believes that structured migration planning will become an essential component of enterprise cybersecurity strategy as global standards bodies, including NIST, continue to advance post-quantum cryptographic frameworks and governments begin establishing migration timelines.

The Company expects QPA v2 to support continued enterprise and public-sector adoption as organizations seek practical, implementation-ready solutions to address long-term cryptographic risk.
