QuSecure’s post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and cryptographic-agility solutions have been added to Carahsoft Technology Corp.’s GSA Schedule contract, expanding access to QuSecure’s QuProtect R3 platform for U.S. Government teams.

The companies said the addition is intended to help Government agencies move from planning to execution on post-quantum security. QuSecure Senior Vice President of Research and Technology Strategy Garfield Jones said the timelines for upgrading key establishment and digital signatures are approaching, with agencies also being asked to address cryptographic vulnerabilities and build crypto-agility into production systems.

“Adding QuProtect R3 to Carahsoft’s GSA Schedule contract is an important step in helping Government agencies move from planning to execution on post-quantum security,” Jones said.

QuProtect R3 is a production-ready platform designed to help organizations discover, remediate and manage cryptographic risks during the transition to post-quantum security. The platform combines continuous discovery, active remediation and real-time reporting to provide visibility into an organization’s cryptographic environment.

Its recon module provides a live inventory of cryptographic assets across cloud, on-premise and legacy systems. The platform also supports encryption upgrades and the implementation of quantum-resistant algorithms without system downtime, code changes or costly infrastructure overhauls. Built-in reporting tools generate automated compliance outputs including Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOMs) aligned with evolving Federal standards.

QuSecure said recent Federal guidance and executive action have established December 31, 2030, as the deadline for key-establishment upgrades and December 31, 2031, for digital-signature upgrades on high-value Federal systems. QuProtect R3 provides centralized control, policy-based crypto-agility and the ability to modernize encryption across complex environments while maintaining operational continuity.

“This partnership removes a major procurement obstacle and gives Government customers a faster path to deploy QuProtect R3 through a vehicle they already know and trust,” Jones said.

Carahsoft Vice President overseeing the QuSecure Team Natalie Gregory said the addition strengthens the company’s portfolio of technologies available to the public sector.

“We are pleased to add QuSecure’s post-quantum cryptography solutions to Carahsoft’s GSA Schedule contract, further strengthening our portfolio of advanced technologies available to the Public Sector,” Gregory said.

QuSecure’s solutions are available through Carahsoft’s GSA Schedule No. 47QSWA18D008F, SEWP V contracts NNG15SC03B and NNG15SC27B, ITES-SW2 Contract W52P1J-20-D-0042, NASPO ValuePoint Master Agreement #AR2472 and OMNIA Partners Contract #R240303.
