SafeLogic Announces SafePQ, Enabling Enterprises to Accelerate Post-Quantum Readiness Without Disrupting Critical Systems

Published

on

SafePQ combines validated post-quantum cryptography, hybrid migration support, enterprise-grade software delivery, and the foundation for cryptographic posture management into a single trusted platform.

VIENNA, Va., June 10, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — SafeLogic today announced the general availability of SafePQ, a post-quantum cryptographic infrastructure solution designed to help enterprises modernize cryptography, accelerate quantum readiness, and establish stronger cryptographic governance across complex production environments.

“SafePQ helps bridge that gap by providing trusted post-quantum cryptography built on rigorously tested implementations, while giving enterprises the flexibility and governance capabilities required to modernize cryptography without disrupting critical business systems.”

As organizations prepare for the transition to post-quantum cryptography (PQC), many are discovering that the challenge extends far beyond implementing new algorithms. Cryptography is deeply embedded across applications, services, APIs, cloud platforms, mobile environments, software dependencies, and critical infrastructure. Successfully navigating the transition requires trusted cryptographic implementations, operational visibility, migration flexibility, and a sustainable path to ongoing cryptographic change.

SafePQ was built to address that challenge.

Built on SafeLogic’s proven software foundation, SafePQ delivers validated post-quantum cryptographic capabilities while providing enterprises with the operational foundation required to manage cryptographic modernization at scale.

“Organizations understand that quantum computing presents a long-term security challenge, but many are still searching for a practical path from awareness to implementation,” said Evgeny Gervis, CEO of SafeLogic. “SafePQ helps bridge that gap by providing trusted post-quantum cryptography built on rigorously tested implementations, while giving enterprises the flexibility and governance capabilities required to modernize cryptography without disrupting critical business systems.”

Trusted Cryptographic Implementations for the Post-Quantum Era

The security of cryptography depends not only on the strength of algorithms, but also on the quality of their implementation. Historically, many vulnerabilities in cryptographic software have resulted from implementation flaws rather than weaknesses in the underlying mathematics.

SafePQ addresses this risk by leveraging SafeLogic’s rigorously validated cryptographic implementations, which have undergone extensive testing through NIST’s Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP) and Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP). Organizations can adopt post-quantum cryptography with confidence, knowing they are relying on implementations built to meet the requirements of regulated and high-assurance environments.

SafePQ includes support for all major NIST-standardized post-quantum cryptographic algorithms, including:

ML-KEM (Module-Lattice Key Encapsulation Mechanism)ML-DSA (Module-Lattice Digital Signature Algorithm)SLH-DSA (Stateless Hash-Based Digital Signature Algorithm)LMS (Leighton-Micali Signature Scheme)

In addition, SafePQ supports both classical and post-quantum cryptography within a unified platform, enabling organizations to meet current security requirements while preparing for future standards adoption.

Enabling Practical and Phased PQC Migration

For most enterprises, post-quantum migration cannot be accomplished through a disruptive “rip-and-replace” approach.

Financial institutions, telecommunications providers, healthcare organizations, technology companies, and critical infrastructure operators often operate highly heterogeneous environments consisting of multiple operating systems, programming languages, hardware architectures, cloud platforms, legacy applications, third-party software, and custom-developed systems.

SafePQ was specifically engineered for these realities.

The platform supports hybrid cryptographic deployments that combine classical and post-quantum algorithms, enabling organizations to strengthen security while maintaining interoperability with existing systems during migration. Hybrid approaches provide an additional layer of defense while allowing organizations to adopt PQC on their own timelines.

SafePQ’s extensive operating environment coverage spans diverse technology stacks, deployment models, programming languages, and runtime environments, making it particularly well suited for large enterprises and financial institutions where cryptographic consistency across disparate systems is essential.

Rather than forcing development teams to redesign applications around new cryptographic libraries, SafePQ provides familiar integration models and broad deployment flexibility, helping organizations accelerate migration while minimizing operational disruption.

Optimized for Enterprise Performance

One of the common misconceptions surrounding post-quantum cryptography is that stronger security necessarily comes with substantial performance penalties.

SafePQ challenges that assumption.

SafeLogic has invested heavily in optimizing the performance of its post-quantum implementations. In many deployment scenarios, SafePQ’s implementation of ML-KEM delivers performance that is significantly faster than traditional public-key cryptographic approaches such as RSA and competitive with or superior to widely deployed elliptic curve implementations.

These optimizations enable organizations to pursue quantum readiness without sacrificing the performance expectations of modern enterprise applications, cloud services, APIs, mobile platforms, and high-volume transaction environments.

Enterprise-Grade Delivery and Lifecycle Management

Modern cryptographic infrastructure requires more than strong algorithms. It also requires a reliable mechanism for delivering updates, deploying patches, and maintaining consistency across large software estates.

SafePQ is supported by SafeLogic’s enterprise-grade software delivery infrastructure, including the SafeLogic Customer Portal and Software Delivery Factory.

Organizations can securely access validated cryptographic updates, automate software distribution through portal APIs, and integrate cryptographic lifecycle management into existing development and deployment workflows.

This approach significantly reduces the burden placed on internal engineering teams. Rather than spending valuable development resources managing cryptographic library updates and deployment logistics, organizations can leverage SafeLogic’s delivery infrastructure to accelerate patch adoption and improve security posture.

By reducing friction associated with cryptographic updates, SafePQ helps organizations deploy security improvements more consistently and more rapidly across their environments.

For customers with specialized operational requirements, SafeLogic also offers customized SafePQ builds tailored to unique deployment, platform, or compliance needs.

Backed by SafeLogic Expertise

SafePQ is supported by SafeLogic’s enterprise support organization and solution engineering teams, providing customers with direct access to cryptographic expertise throughout their modernization journey.

From architecture guidance and migration planning to deployment support and operational best practices, SafeLogic works alongside customers to help reduce implementation risk and accelerate time-to-value.

This combination of validated software and specialized expertise helps organizations move beyond experimentation and toward production-ready quantum preparedness.

Building Toward Cryptographic Posture Management

While SafePQ delivers immediate value through validated post-quantum cryptography and hybrid migration support, it also represents an important step toward a broader vision for enterprise cryptographic management.

Over time, organizations will need more than algorithm implementations. They will need visibility into cryptographic usage, governance over cryptographic policies, and the ability to adapt as standards, threats, and business requirements evolve.

SafeLogic is actively expanding SafePQ with additional capabilities designed to help organizations better understand, govern, and modernize cryptography across the software lifecycle. Future enhancements will focus on areas such as policy-driven cryptographic governance, operational visibility, and crypto-agility, helping enterprises prepare not only for today’s migration requirements but also for the continuous evolution of cryptographic standards.

These capabilities will ultimately contribute to SafeLogic’s broader vision for cryptographic posture management, providing organizations with a more comprehensive approach to managing cryptographic risk across increasingly complex environments.

Nextworld Launches Agentic Development: Prompt-to-Production Software for the Enterprise

Published

New capability uses coordinated AI agents and specification-driven development to close the gap between AI-generated prototypes and production-ready enterprise systems

GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo., June 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Nextworld, the AI-native enterprise platform for eliminating Shadow ERP™, today announced the general availability of Agentic Development, a new capability addressing the widening gap in the market between AI-generated prototypes and production-ready enterprise systems. The new feature enables teams to describe operational problems in natural language and receive production-ready, governed enterprise software in return.

AI-powered app builders have made it faster than ever to generate a working prototype from a prompt, but the path from prototype to production remains unsolved for most organizations. Crucial business functions such as security, governance, compliance, integration, testing, and long-term maintainability still fall to the teams adopting these tools, and the resulting applications frequently operate outside IT oversight, creating new layers of ungoverned risk.

The industry is beginning to reckon with this reality. Recent research has surfaced significant security vulnerabilities in AI-generated code, and enterprise leaders across sectors have raised concerns about deploying AI-built applications that lack the governance controls their organizations require. The pattern is familiar: teams move fast, but the output doesn’t survive contact with production.

As a result, Nextworld built Agentic Development to break the pattern.

A different architecture, not a faster prototype
Where most AI building tools assign a single agent to generate code from a prompt, Agentic Development deploys a coordinated team of AI agents that mirror a real software development team. Product Owner Agents translate business needs into formal specifications. Design and Development Agents build the application against those specs. Quality Assurance Agents generate and execute tests to verify the output meets requirements. The result is software that has been specified, built, and tested before it ever reaches a user.

“Most agentic development tools stop at the prototype. Nextworld’s Agentic Development covers the full software development lifecycle giving teams the ability to go from a natural language prompt to a governed, production-ready application in hours without creating shadow IT or putting the burden of security and compliance back on IT,” said Vito Solimene, co-founder and chief technology officer of Nextworld.

The agent architecture is only half the story. Underpinning how those agents interact with the platform at runtime is Nextworld’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server, and the way it’s built is what separates it from how most teams are implementing MCP today. Rather than relying on a fixed library of pre-built tool calls, an approach that hits hard limits as query complexity grows, Nextworld’s implementation uses Code Mode, which allows agents to write and execute logic dynamically at runtime inside a secure, sandboxed environment. Agents discover available platform primitives, compose the logic they need for a given task, and execute it server-side. Data never enters the large language model’s context window. Role-based access controls and audit logging apply automatically, because the sandbox operates under the same security model as the rest of the platform.

The architectural foundation is specification-driven development. Rather than treating generated code as the end product, Agentic Development captures user requirements in a formal, AI-readable specification that persists across the entire lifecycle. As the user iterates, the specification evolves, and the agents rebuild the application to match. The specification is the durable asset. The generated application is a commodity that can be recreated at any point without losing the intent behind it.

Enterprise-grade by construction
Everything built through Agentic Development inherits the full operational foundation of the Nextworld Platform. Security, role-based access controls, audit trails, lifecycle management, and zero-downtime upgrades are not configured after the fact. They are inherited automatically, because every application runs on Nextworld’s metadata-driven architecture.

This is a meaningful distinction from approaches that generate standalone applications requiring separate infrastructure, security models, and deployment pipelines. On Nextworld, there is no “last mile” between building an application and operating it in production. The platform handles governance so teams can focus on solving the operational problem.

“Everything produced by our Agentic Development technology is proper Nextworld metadata, governed by the same role-based access controls, audit, and lifecycle controls as the rest of the platform. The specification is the durable artifact, not the code. Nothing built this way becomes shadow IT,” Solimene said.

Built for the people closest to the problem
Agentic Development is designed for the business analysts, operations managers, finance leads, compliance teams, and other subject matter experts who understand their organization’s processes better than anyone. These are the people who have been describing the same broken workflows for years but lacked the tools to fix them without waiting in an IT backlog.

With Agentic Development, they can describe what they need in natural language and get working software that IT can govern, maintain, and approve. The goal is not to bypass IT. It is to give business teams a way to build on a platform that IT already trusts.

Availability
Agentic Development is available now as part of the Nextworld Platform. Companies interested in experiencing it firsthand can book a hands-on build session at nextw.com.

About Nextworld
Nextworld is an AI-native, enterprise-grade platform that helps organizations build powerful applications fast, automate intelligently, and modernize without disruption. It combines developer AI agents, composable applications, and a perpetually modern architecture so teams can move from idea to enterprise-ready app in minutes, stay upgrade-safe forever, and scale without limits.
