What advantage does AhP-Tech receive from its Taiwan location?
The government of Taiwan began promoting zero-trust architecture (ZTA, a standard issued by NIST for identity authentication) in 2022 to strengthen the independent research and development capabilities of Taiwan’s cybersecurity industry. That facilitated the growth of highly skilled workforces in the domain of cybersecurity, and encouraged serious security schemes with all-round identity authentications.
Taiwan is the Asia-Pacific submarine cable center as a key communication hub connecting the United States to Asia. In recent years, Taiwan's location has frequently covered sensitive issues such as information security, national defense, and data protection. It significantly promoted the event horizons and awareness of various cyber threats for local talents.
AhP-Tech realized that ZTA cannot address emerging threats driven by AI and Quantum Computing. The firm focuses on creating useful API services supported by a cloud platform through integration of “innovative quantum computing technologies”, “system monitors on specific target threats”, and “mechanisms of resilience for risk countermeasures” to benefit global companies who value data and sustainability.
How does AhP-Tech help its clients defend against the new form of cyberattacks?
The ideal solution is to focus on a tailored, internal tool for the client that can deliver security from the emerging threats of AI/Quantum. That’s why we focus on providing API service as our startup implementation. Secondly, shared standards are adopted into our production as a baseline to assure our customers of reliable, high-strength enhancement. Hence, we received validation from NIST, the US regulatory authority, through full-parameters configuration, especially for shared security standards adopted by our platform.
Today, Post-Quantum Cryptographic algorithms standardized by NIST facilitate the protection on the schemes of “data encryption/decryption” and “digital signature authentications” to counter the threats powered by quantum computing.
However, to defend against emerging threats enhanced by AI and quantum computing, companies must get much more than those ready. A solution with a holographic view on the entire workflow for each use case is required.
AhP-Tech Quantum Computing Cloud Platform, is a PaaS integrated with “PQC shared standards validated by NIST”, “proprietary US patents”, “quantum entropy sources for true randomness”, and “NIST SP 800-227 Recommendations for Key Encapsulation Mechanism” thereby providing API services to our subscribers.
With legacy systems, can you help companies to implement a quantum-secure structure without too much complication?
A system with a conventional computer usually can perform API calls without additional efforts on apparatus investment or high-skilled talent training. If needed, our workforce can suggest the corresponding countermeasures for various use cases required by individual company.

阿證科技在台灣地區可取得的優勢是甚麼?台灣政府於2022年開始推廣零信任架構（ZTA，由美國國家標準與技術研究機構NIST所發布的身份認證標準），以加強台灣資安產業的自主研發能力。此舉促進了台灣資安領域高技術人才的培養，並鼓勵了採用全方位身分認證的嚴謹安全方案。
此外，台灣是亞太地區的海纜中心，也是連結美國與亞洲的重要通訊樞紐。近年來，台灣地區頻繁涉及資訊安全、國防、資料保護等敏感議題，大幅提升了當地人才對各類網路威脅的眼界與認知。
阿證科技藉此得以特別聚焦於『零信任架構』無法應對好的新興威脅，像是由人工智慧或量子運算所驅動的威脅等，透過整合“創新的量子運算技術”、“針對特定目標威脅的系統監控”和“具風險對策的韌性機制”，創建了由雲端平台所支援的實用 API 服務，以助益重視資料價值和關注永續經營的全球企業。
阿證科技如何協助客戶抵禦新型態的網路攻擊?
理想的解決方案應該能夠被作為公司內部工具使用於設計自己的安全方案，以抵禦人工智慧或量子運算帶來的新興威脅。因此，我們專注於提供 API 服務作為我們起步的實作。其次，我們的產線應該以公用標準為基礎，確保為客戶提供可靠的高強度強化方案。因此，我們的團隊特別針對我們平台所採用的公用安全標準，堅持透過全參數配置以獲得NIST的驗證。
如今，許多公司已經了解到，NIST 標準化的後量子加密演算法有助於保護「資料加解密」和「數位簽章認證」方案，以應對量子運算所帶來的威脅。
然而，為了抵禦人工智慧和量子運算帶來的新興威脅，企業必須做的遠不止於此。他們需要一個能夠為每個用例全方位照看整個運作流程的解決方案。
阿證科技的量子運算雲端平台是一個整合了「NIST驗證的後量子公用標準」、「自有美國專利」、各種「真隨機量子熵源」以及「NIST SP 800-227金鑰封裝機制指引」的服務平台，藉此為我們的訂閱用戶提供API服務
如何協助使用傳統系統的企業實作量子安全架構而不需大費周章?
傳統的電腦系統通常無需額外投資設備或訓練高技術人才便可以執行API呼叫。如有需要，我們的團隊還可以針對不同公司所需的各種用例，建議相應的對策。
