Bitmax and Korea Advanced Materials Unveil 'PatchGuard' Combining AI and Quantum Security to Target Global Web3 Market

Bitmax and Korea Advanced Materials are set to enter the global market with the launch of a next-generation integrated security platform, "PatchGuard," which combines artificial intelligence (AI)-powered autonomous security technology with post-quantum cryptography (PQC).

On May 27, Bitmax announced that it will integrate Korea Advanced Materials' core quantum security solution, "QuantumSafe," into its AI-based security platform brand, PatchGuard, and that the two companies will jointly begin business operations and global marketing efforts.

The companies explained that this collaboration is a strategy aimed at enhancing the competitiveness of next-generation integrated security platforms by combining AI-based autonomous security frameworks with quantum security. They particularly expect to gain a competitive edge in the global Web3 and financial security markets.

With recent advancements in quantum computing technology raising concerns about the vulnerability of existing cryptographic systems, the adoption of post-quantum cryptography is expanding across global big tech firms, major governments, and the Web3 industry at large.

Korea Advanced Materials' "QuantumSafe," applied to PatchGuard, is a technology that enables post-quantum security to be implemented in existing financial networks and major blockchain networks through API integration, without requiring any changes to the system architecture. It supports a total of 19 major blockchains and complies with the FIPS 204 and FIPS 205 post-quantum cryptography standards set by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Additionally, it is integrated with Amazon Web Services’ AWS KMS FIPS 140-3 Level 3 HSM, ensuring security reliability at a global standard.

With this integration, Bitmax is incorporating quantum security technology into its proprietary agentic AI-based autonomous vulnerability detection and remediation engines, "Deep Hunt" and "AI Repair." As a result, the company states that it has established an integrated security system capable of simultaneously responding to AI-based cyberattacks and future quantum computer-based cryptographic threats.

A Bitmax representative stated, "By adopting Korea Advanced Materials' NIST-standard PQC technology, which is a global security trend, PatchGuard has taken a leap forward as a next-generation, ultra-advanced security platform," adding, "We aim to lead the massive global shift toward quantum security and maximize global brand value and shareholder value."

A representative from Korea Advanced Materials also commented, "By combining our core PQC technology with Bitmax's AI security platform, we will secure strong competitiveness in the global market," and added, "We plan to expand into the global Web3 and AI security infrastructure market, based on the integrated PatchGuard brand."

Through this collaboration—combining AI autonomous security technology and post-quantum cryptography—Bitmax and Korea Advanced Materials are making a full-fledged move to take the lead in the next-generation global security market.
