Gold Comet and Carahsoft in Partnership to Make Quantum-Secure Platform Accessible to Public Sector

Gold Comet, provider of quantum-secure object level encrypted file storage, file sharing and messaging, and Carahsoft Technology Corp., trusted government IT solutions provider, announced a partnership.

Under the agreement, Carahsoft will serve as Gold Comet’s master government aggregator, making the company’s patented quantum-secure file storage, file sharing and messaging system available to the public sector through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and National Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (NCPA), OMNIA Partners and E&I Cooperative Services contracts.

“The government is increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks as more data is being shared and stored online, often on legacy systems,” said Gautam Daswani, president, Gold Comet. “We are pleased to partner with Carahsoft, a recognized and trusted name in the government IT market, to bring the Gold Comet Solution to our public sector customers, providing them with the cybersecurity capabilities required to protect the Government’s virtual assets.”

The Quantum-Secure Solution enables government agencies, military personnel, defense contractors and members of the intelligence community to securely store, share data and communicate with confidence. Gold Comet provides next-gen secure storage and sharing services with quantum technology integration, using equipment housed in a U.S. FISMA high-rated, FedRAMP, CMMC and CUI certified facility, with industry standard 256-bit object level encryption and its patented dynamic key pair process. This single use process within the protective environment of the Gold Comet Secure Cloud ensures all data remains secure for each file – both at rest and in motion. The system is further protected with multi-factor authentication and whitelist-only access, while all incoming and outgoing messages are scanned for malware.

“Gold Comet’s integration into our portfolio marks a pivotal advancement for Government agencies, delivering quantum-secure, zero trust data storage and collaboration solution,” said Troy Meraw, partner alliance manager, core cyber team, Carahsoft. “Through this partnership with Gold Comet and our reseller network, we empower the Public Sector with robust data security measures, enabling seamless collaboration while upholding stringent compliance standards.”
