ICTK (CEO Lee Jung-won), a next-generation quantum safety fabless firm, introduced on the twenty third that it obtained the Business Pioneer Award on the EBISION 2025 Award hosted by IFIP, a globally prestigious worldwide info know-how group, formally recognizing its technological innovation.
This award ceremony was performed as a part of ‘EBISION 2025 (The 2025 IFIP WG 8.4 Worldwide Symposium on E-Enterprise Data Methods Evolution)’ hosted by IFIP WG 8.4 (Data Methods in Growing International locations).
The Worldwide Federation for Data Processing (IFIP), which organized this award, is essentially the most authoritative tutorial {and professional} federation within the worldwide info know-how subject, established in 1960 beneath UNESCO sponsorship. Consultant tutorial societies and analysis establishments from international locations worldwide take part to steer worldwide discussions and analysis cooperation throughout the complete ICT spectrum, together with info processing, info methods, software program, safety, and AI.
The ‘Business Pioneer Award’ is a newly established award in 2025 designed to establish revolutionary corporations main industrial transformation in next-generation ICT fields comparable to AI, quantum computing, and 6G. Award recipients are chosen by means of rigorous technical analysis by a panel of judges composed of trade and tutorial consultants. ICTK added significance by being named because the inaugural recipient of this award.
The judging panel acknowledged relating to ICTK’s award background, “We extremely evaluated the innovation of VIA PUF and quantum safety chip applied sciences that dramatically improved safety reliability in e-business and digital service environments, in addition to their contribution to the next-generation ICT trade.”
ICTK has offered a brand new paradigm in {hardware} safety by changing into the world’s first to mass-produce ‘VIA PUF (Bodily Unclonable Perform)’ know-how, which generates distinctive IDs which can be bodily unclonable utilizing semiconductor course of variations. In early 2025, the corporate built-in Publish-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) know-how into safety chips, establishing itself as an revolutionary firm within the quantum safety {hardware} subject.
This award was supported by ICTK’s analysis reliability and internationally acknowledged achievements. This yr, ICTK printed a paper associated to qTrustNet, which contains next-generation safety protocols combining PQC algorithms and PUF know-how, within the SCIE-grade worldwide journal ‘IEEE Entry (Vol.13, 2025)’. The corporate additionally obtained Widespread Standards (CC) EAL6 growth atmosphere safety certification (Website Audit) from a Dutch certification authority, proving its world top-level safety manufacturing capabilities.
Moreover, ICTK has been repeatedly acknowledged for its technological prowess on the worldwide stage, together with being chosen as a High 30 Finalist for the ‘WIPO World Awards’ chosen by the World Mental Property Group (WIPO) in 2025 and successful the gold medal on the worldwide invention exhibition ‘iENA 2024’.
An ICTK official acknowledged, “We’re vastly honored to have our technological innovation and industrial contribution acknowledged by IFIP, which holds the best authority within the info processing subject. By this award, we are going to additional develop cooperation with world huge tech corporations and quantum safety establishments to leap ahead as an organization main world quantum safety requirements.”
In the meantime, ICTK is accelerating its entry into the worldwide market by means of the commercialization of ‘PQC-PUF built-in quantum safety semiconductors (QCIM)’ by forming quantum safety alliances with Canada’s BTQ Applied sciences and Crypto4A, and finishing safety verification with world High 5 IT corporations.
