Scott Lazarus is a passionate leader with a strong track record of founding, scaling, and leading innovative companies to successful exits. As the founder and president of multiple ventures, Scott has consistently demonstrated thoughtful leadership in creating best-in-class organizations across diverse industries.
His latest venture, Zeroproof, addresses the most serious threat to the global digital landscape in the history of computing, the threat posed by quantum computing to current encryption standards. What would take thousands of years to crack using a classic computer can be done by a quantum computer in minutes.The Google Willow quantum computer recently solved a complex calculation in 5 minutes that would take the world’s most powerful supercomputer over 50 septillion years to accomplish the same calculation.
The Zeroproof Emulated Quantum Key Distribution system, eQKD, is a transformative technology which leverages the existing internet infrastructure to distribute quantum resistant encryption keys with unconditional security, while eliminating the cost or complexity associated with other key distribution technologies.
Scott’s accomplishments include establishing nationwide distribution channels, driving market adoption of innovative products, and leading research in secure communications and encryption systems. At SybaTek, an audio-visual integration firm he founded, Scott pioneered high-performance AV solutions and developed a remote-managed services platform for AV environments. Client driven requirements to secure this RMS technology drove advancements and innovation in secure communication channels, ultimately leading to the creation of Zeroproof.
