On November 5, 2026, ZeroTier and Redapt announced a partnership to integrate ZeroTier Quantum, a quantum secure networking platform, into data center infrastructure solutions. Redapt will combine ZeroTier Quantum with its cloud and managed services to protect enterprise environments against future quantum computing threats. “Quantum security can’t remain a future roadmap item for enterprise-level infrastructure,” said Andrew Gault, ZeroTier’s CEO, as organizations increasingly seek to secure distributed systems without extensive network re-architecting. Both companies have strong footprints in markets like government, defense, finance and regulated gaming.

Redapt Integrates ZeroTier Quantum into Data Center Solutions

Redapt’s integration of ZeroTier Quantum directly addresses the challenge of securing existing data center infrastructure against future quantum computing threats, bypassing the need for complete network overhauls. The partnership focuses on delivering functional quantum security to customers who cannot afford lengthy, disruptive migrations, a key concern for organizations with long-term data confidentiality requirements.

Rick Cantu, Redapt’s CEO and Co-Founder, explained that “ZeroTier Quantum gives us a way to add FIPS quantum-secure networking aligned with CNSA 2.0 standards directly into the environments we already build and manage for our customers.” This approach allows security teams to proactively address vulnerabilities without interrupting ongoing operations. The implementation of ZeroTier Quantum uses a unique protocol, the ZeroTier Transport Protocol (ZTP), which embeds hybrid FIPS-compliant post-quantum cryptography into the transport layer.

This design choice prioritizes both resilience and cryptographic security, meeting the stringent standards set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the National Security Agency (NSA) at CNSA 2.0. ZeroTier Quantum uses ML-KEM-1024 (FIPS 203) for key exchange and ML-DSA-87 (FIPS 204) for digital signatures, ensuring a robust defense against potential decryption of currently stored data by future quantum computers.

The platform’s architecture is specifically designed for data center speeds, avoiding performance bottlenecks often associated with other quantum security solutions. Beyond the technical specifications, the collaboration aims to simplify the deployment of quantum-secure networking as a managed service.

According to ZeroTier, organizations are increasingly focused on operational simplicity when evaluating security solutions. “Organizations are already rethinking how they secure private environments, especially as infrastructure becomes more distributed,” stated a company representative. “Redapt understands how to operationalize complex environments at scale, and together with ZeroTier we’re making it easier for customers to deploy quantum-secure networking as part of a complete managed solution.” This partnership is intended to expand the commercial availability of ZeroTier Quantum, providing a direct pathway for enterprises to enhance their security posture.

ZeroTier reports gaining traction in the enterprise market and sees Redapt’s infrastructure expertise as a catalyst for wider adoption. “This partnership opens a new commercial channel for ZeroTier Quantum, giving enterprises a direct path to deploy quantum-secure networking across their critical infrastructure,” the company stated.

The combined offering targets customers in sectors where data longevity and confidentiality are paramount, offering a proactive solution to the evolving threat landscape. Cantu emphasized that “Customers want infrastructure solutions that are secure, flexible, operationally simple, and now, quantum secure,” highlighting the demand for practical, readily deployable quantum security measures.

Redapt will act as ZeroTier’s virtual Chief Information Security Officer, extending the partnership beyond a simple technology integration and signaling a deeper strategic alignment between the two companies. This advisory role positions Redapt to provide cybersecurity guidance and strategic security planning for ZeroTier, using its expertise in data center infrastructure and managed services. The arrangement demonstrates a commitment to proactive security measures, anticipating the evolving threat landscape and ensuring ZeroTier remains a leader in quantum-resistant networking, the company says.

ZeroTier received both a 2026 Cybersecurity Excellence Award and the Startup Pitch Competition win at Money20/20 USA, recognizing its innovation in the security space. The platform’s design prioritizes resilient connectivity, flexibility and high levels of cryptographic security, offering a comprehensive solution for organizations seeking to protect their data against future computing threats.
