⚡ Isidore Quantum® – Post-Quantum Cybersecurity for Power Utilities & SCADA

Power grids, water systems, and industrial control networks form the backbone of modern civilization. Yet these SCADA/ICS environments were built for uptime, not cyber resilience. With quantum computing predicted to break RSA and ECC by 2026, critical infrastructure faces an unprecedented risk: attackers harvesting encrypted traffic today to decrypt tomorrow.

Isidore Quantum® is the drop-in, CNSA 2.0-compliant, FIPS 140-3 certified solution engineered to harden SCADA/ICS systems against post-quantum threats. Compact, efficient, and rugged, it provides 10X the protection without 10X the cost, ensuring utilities stay online and secure even as Q-Day approaches.

🏭 Why SCADA Operators Trust Isidore Quantum®

  • Plug-and-Play Protection
    Drop directly into existing SCADA, PLC, and OT networks—no rewrites, no downtime, no protocol breaks.

  • Quantum-Safe Cryptography
    Employs NSA-approved CNSA 2.0 algorithms (CRYSTALS-Kyber & Dilithium) that resist both classical and quantum attacks.

  • Zero Trust, Zero Certificates
    Eliminates fragile PKI and manual key loaders, replacing them with autonomous ephemeral keying that vanishes after use.

  • Resilient Against Side-Channel Exploits
    Hardware-enforced red/black separation and AI-driven antifragility block side-channel attacks and adaptive threats.

  • SCADA-Ready SWaP-C

    • <8 watts of power

    • Credit-card-sized, ruggedized casing

    • Sub-ms latency for real-time grid operations

  • Proven Under Pressure
    Validated in 23+ pilots across DoD, critical infrastructure, and defense environments—including power and utility testbeds.

⚔️ Mission Benefits for Utilities & Critical Infrastructure

  • Grid Resilience: Protects substations, generation plants, and transmission networks from post-quantum cyber threats.

  • SCADA Security: Shields PLCs, HMIs, and control centers from HNDL and quantum-enabled decryption.

  • Regulatory Compliance: Aligns with NSA CNSA 2.0, NIST PQC standards, and U.S. DHS/CISA mandates for critical infrastructure security.

  • Affordable & Exportable: Deployable across municipal utilities, national grids, and private operators without the heavy cost of legacy crypto gear.

⚡ When quantum breaks today’s encryption, Isidore Quantum® is what stands.

Protect your grid, SCADA, and industrial control systems with the world’s first drop-in post-quantum cybersecurity solution—built for uptime, resilience, and the future of critical infrastructure.
