The quantum computing threat isn't a far-off problem anymore, with deadlines rapidly shifting closer to 2029. Organizations are scrambling to secure $30 trillion in legacy IT infrastructure. Dr. José Rosas, CEO of EigenQ, joins host Konstantinos Karagiannis to explain how his company can bypass the need for costly "rip-and-replace" server upgrades by delivering plug-and-play PCIe accelerator boards. By combining quantum entropy (random number generation) with post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algorithms into existing server architectures like Intel Xeon and AMD EPYC, EigenQ creates a full-stack, hardware-rooted trust layer without modifying host motherboards.

Beyond retrofitting legacy servers, Dr. Rosas reveals EigenQ's broader vision to master crypto-agility. Using dynamic hardware reconfiguration to adapt as PQC standards evolve prevents getting trapped by rigid silicon designs. He delves into how their hardware integrates directly into CPU Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), extends to tactical edge environments like drones, and lays the groundwork for their next frontier: quantum-assisted AI and photonic interconnects.
