South Korean company Norma has launched a new innovation it believes will set the bar for quantum computing in Asia. The Q Care Connect Series is post-quantum cryptography (PQC) technology, also known as quantum encryption, that can future-proof digital security.
This technology can futureproof safeguards for IoT devices in smart homes and work environments, providing much-needed security to these vulnerable areas. Norma’s Q Care Connect Series is designed to be compatible and easily integrated with existing network infrastructures and is already being used by businesses, including HDC Labs, one of the top smart building companies in South Korea.
“With over a decade of experience in quantum-safe and quantum computing technology, Norma has established itself as one of the top five organizations globally, along with industry giants like SK Telecom and NEC Corporation, leading the way to commercialization of quantum-safe products in the near future. HDC Labs is proud to partner with Norma to set new industry standards for security,” Kim Kyu-Heun, HDC Labs Business Development Team General Manager, stated.

Founded in 2011 by Jung Hyun-Chul, Norma has currently raised US$15 million to date. Its main research facility is located in Seoul. Since launching, the company has expanded its operations globally with a presence in the US, Europe, Hong Kong and China.
In addition to the Q Care Connect Series, Norma is developing other quantum computing solutions with a focus on security. The company is preparing for an IPO planned for later this year.
“As quantum computing capabilities become accessible in the near future, our information security has to keep up. We are excited to be at the forefront of this space, working with many different industry partners. We are committed to always being a step ahead of any potential threats.” Jung Hyun-Chul explains.
