SandboxAQ Receives FedHealthIT Disruptive Tech Award for Helping U.S. Department of Health & Human Services Assess Quantum Cyber Threats

SandboxAQ delivers first PQC inventory in federal health IT community three months ahead of schedule

MCLEAN, VA., April 13, 2023 -- Yesterday at the FedHealthIT Disruptive Tech Summit, SandboxAQ received the FedHealthIT Disruptive Tech Award, recognizing SandboxAQ's Security Suite. The cryptographic management software is currently deployed at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

SandboxAQ recently delivered the first post-quantum cryptography (PQC) inventory in the federal health IT community to HHS–three months ahead of the scheduled delivery date, in partnership with Cart.com. SandboxAQ performed network cryptography analysis and assessed the cybersecurity architecture of Cart.com’s HHS fulfillment network. SandboxAQ also implemented PQC discovery tools to plan for the protection of systems and sensitive data.

The FedHealthIT Disruptive Tech Awards recognize programs from both industry and government that drive transformational progress in the federal market and have a measurable impact on culture and mission.

“Forward-looking agencies realize the tremendous importance of beginning the lengthy PQC migration process immediately,” said Jen Sovada, President, Public Sector at SandboxAQ. “This effort demonstrates the art of the possibility for efficient PQC migration across the U.S. government. SandboxAQ is particularly excited about our partnership with Cart.com, as it showcases our technologies' dual-use application to help businesses and governments achieve mission success.”
