The collaboration aims to protect financial institutions’ client data from potential future decryption threats posed by advancing quantum computing capabilities. By integrating Sealsq’s quantum-resistant technologies with Wecan’s compliance and secure data sharing platform, the partnership seeks to establish new security standards for the financial industry.

The initiative is part of Wecan’s innovation roadmap, which includes several upcoming releases aimed at enhancing client experience. The partnership focuses on securing client data throughout the entire collection and processing lifecycle, addressing growing concerns about data vulnerability as quantum computing advances.
