Quantum Xchange Grows Headcount By 60% To Meet Global Demand For Its Leading Quantum-Safe Key Management System

Business Wire16-07-2025
BETHESDA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Quantum Xchange, the quantum-safe encryption company, has announced its expansion in the U.S. increasing headcount by more than 60% across its product engineering, sales, and marketing teams. The move signals the company's commitment to deepening customer and partner engagement, driving brand awareness, and continuing to innovate on Phio TX®, its award-winning key management system that enables a seamless transition to the latest Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) standards.
In August 2024, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) formalized the world's first PQC standards, providing organizations with a framework to secure systems and data against future quantum threats – or the day when quantum computers will be powerful enough to break common encryption protocols, such as RSA and AES. Given the complexity and unpredictability of this migration and for immediate protection against Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL) attacks, NIST has urged organizations to begin transitioning their systems immediately to the PQC standards. As a result, the quantum security market is projected to reach $6.7 billion by 2032.
Quantum Xchange has strengthened its leadership team with key appointments across corporate disciplines. Antonio Sanchez has joined as Chief Strategy Officer, bringing decades of experience in enterprise cybersecurity having held various leadership roles in product management, marketing, and technical sales at Dell, Symantec, Forcepoint, Alert Logic, and Fortra. He is responsible for the development and execution of the company's overall go-to-market strategy and brand positioning.
Sanchez is joined by Christina Hausman, Vice President of Product Growth, who comes to Quantum Xchange from Cisco Systems, where she spent more than two decades helping grow the security business from a handful of products to more than 20 technologies covering Security Services Edge (SSE/SASE), workload and data center security, network and endpoint security, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), compliance, SIEM and security management. At Quantum Xchange she oversees the revenue growth and retention strategies for the company's flagship product, Phio TX.
Also coming off a successful tenure with Cisco is Eden Taylor, Vice President of Partner Alliances, where she is responsible for developing channel partner strategies, direct sales, and building stakeholder relationships with leading networking and communications vendors.
In addition, Quantum Xchange has appointed Andrey Vovk, Vice President of Engineering to ensure its offerings and product roadmap are deeply aligned with customer needs and regulatory requirements. Vovk has a proven, 30-year track record in quality product delivery and building high-performing engineering teams at security companies including InforMax, Fidelis, and Bricata. Galit Miller joins Vovk and other members of the engineering team as Director of Frontend Engineering. Both report to Gene Savchuk, Chief Product Officer and inventor of Phio TX.
'It's an exciting time for Quantum Xchange and these strategic hires illustrate how we are prepared to meet the moment to unlock new opportunities and deliver even greater value to our stakeholders,' said Eddy Zervigon, CEO of Quantum Xchange. 'There's no easier way to ensure your legacy encryption is immediately quantum-safe, while simultaneously practicing crypto-agility and quantum readiness. Phio TX is a true game changer.'
Phio TX works with an organization's existing infrastructure to send a second symmetric key out-of-band, independently from the encrypted data path. These ephemeral key pairs are dynamically generated in-memory and deleted after use. The solution is FIPS 203 and FIPS 140-3 validated and utilizes NIST Entropy Source Validation for unpredictable randomness, secure data transmission, and eavesdropping prevention.
