TORONTO, March 7, 2019 /CNW/ - 01 Communique Laboratory
Inc. (ONE:TSX-V) today announced results for its first quarter
fiscal 2019, which ended January 31,
2019. The Company's loss for the first quarter 2019 was
$187,309 (2018 - $38,179) an increase of $142,772 which is a result of the investment we
are making in transitioning our business and development of our new
Post-Quantum Cryptography ("PQ-Crypto") technologies. We completed
the period with $612,294 of cash and
cash equivalents and guaranteed investment certificate.
"During the first quarter we continued and made significant
inroads in the development of our PQ-Crypto technologies," said
Andrew Cheung, President and CEO for
01 Communique. "We are on track to release the first beta product
incorporating our patent-pending cryptographic system this summer
followed by a commercial launch in the fall. We are extremely
excited about the prospects for our first new product which is an
email/file encryption and digital signing system targeted at
consumers as well as businesses of all sizes. Unlike other secure
email offering in the market that store their users' email and
require recipients to read the messages from their servers, our
offering delivers end-to-end encrypted messages to the recipients
that only they can decrypt and read. This eliminates a central
target point of cyber attack. We believe this will be the world's
first secure quantum-safe email system powered by our PQ-Crypto
technology,"
About our PQ-Crypto technologies:
Our invention, as described in our previously announced
United States patent application
Nos. 16/268,098 of January 2019,
relates generally to cryptographic systems and methods. It is
a unique cryptographic system that is not only safe from malicious
attacks from Quantum Computers in the future but it can also be
implemented on today's classical computer systems to safeguard them
from malicious attacks that are present in today`s environment. Its
application is very broad. Solution vendors of many industries such
as email encryption, file encryption, digital signature, blockchain
implementation, remote access / VPN, credit card security, cloud
storage, password management, etc can easily transform their
solutions to safeguard against the threat in the post-quantum world
of computing. The email/file encryption and digital signature
product described above is one of these vertical applications that
we are implementing and offering as a commercial product by
ourselves.
A new branding and web site will be announced at our Annual
General Meeting coming soon on April 24,
2019 with a preview of the new product.
