Press releases

Blaze Automation, a leading Original Design Manufacturer (ODM) in the IoT Industry today announced it has integrated Quantum Random Number Generation (QRNG) technology into its Edge Gateways and platforms. The highest level of security is generation of entropy at the edge. This move positions Blaze Automation as one of the first companies to harness quantum physics for cyber security. 
 

The timing is critical: with over 25 billion connected devices in use today (projected to reach 50 billion by 2030) and an estimated 98% of their data traffic unencrypted, the need for stronger security in everyday gadgets has never been greater.
 

In cybersecurity, true randomness at the edge (known as entropy) is critical. As one industry statement explains, “Entropy creates completely unpredictable strings of random numbers, making it exceptionally difficult for bad actors to predict patterns and hack into systems”. Because Blaze’s QRNG approach uses dedicated hardware to generate entropy, it removes a potential weak link. Every Blaze AI Ready Edge Gateway will carry its own mini quantum random generator, greatly reducing the chance of vulnerabilities. By embracing QRNG now, Blaze is giving its customers a head start on quantum-ready security. It also underscores Blaze’s reputation as a forward-looking innovator - effectively bringing cutting-edge research out of the lab and into the living room.
 

Sridhar Ponugupati, CEO of Blaze Automation, said, “Our customers and partners entrust us with the safety of their data, and we take that responsibility to heart. By embedding quantum-grade randomness into our products, we are adding an invisible but powerful shield for every customer we power. It means peace of mind for our customers and partners, a new benchmark for security in the industry. We are proud to be pioneering this technology, and we believe it will soon become the norm as people demand stronger protection.”
 

For Blaze’s partners and OEM clients, the integration of QRNG opens new opportunities as well. Companies building on Blaze’s designed hardware can offer quantum-level security to their customers, helping them stand out in a crowded market. As industry research notes, the traditional cost and integration barriers to such advanced security are falling, allowing organizations to differentiate themselves by protecting their investments with top-end quantum safeguards. Blaze Automation’s move embodies this trend by making state-of-the-art security practical for everyday life.
