ITTI Partners With SignQuantum to Offer Quantum-Resistant E-Signatures in LatAm

ITTI, a leading Paraguayan technology company specializing in digital transformation solutions for the financial sector, has entered into an exclusive distribution agreement for Latin America with SignQuantum, a quantum-resistant e-signature add-on [1]. The partnership aims to deliver quantum-safe digital signatures to ITTI’s clients, including banks, insurance companies, and public sector institutions, across the region. As the global digital signature market is expected to grow from USD 10.80 billion in 2025 to USD 118.88 billion by 2032, the urgency to adopt post-quantum security solutions is intensifying [1].

The agreement positions ITTI to provide its Latin American clients with access to advanced quantum-proof technology for securing sensitive documents and contracts. This move is particularly timely, as the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) plans to deprecate current digital signature algorithms by 2030, urging organizations to adopt quantum-safe alternatives [1]. With companies like IBM working toward large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers by 2029, the need to future-proof digital signatures is becoming a strategic imperative for enterprises.

SignQuantum’s solution integrates with existing e-signature platforms and leverages the NIST-recommended post-quantum algorithm to ensure document authenticity. It also employs QANplatform, a quantum-resistant blockchain, to provide immutable time-stamping [1]. This approach addresses two critical vulnerabilities: ensuring the integrity of digital signatures and securing proof of timing. The technology allows organizations to transition to quantum-safe security without disrupting current workflows.

Luis Angulo, Vice President of ITTI, emphasized that the partnership strengthens the company’s portfolio by adding a critical tool for securing digital transactions in a rapidly evolving market. “This will benefit both our current and future clients, allowing them to confidently navigate the future of secure digital signatures,” he stated [1]. ITTI already processes over 40% of Paraguay’s financial transactions and has built trust with nine of the 22 financial institutions regulated by the Central Bank of Paraguay [1].

Nazmath Nazeer, CEO of SignQuantum, praised ITTI for its regional leadership and technical capabilities, highlighting its role in accelerating post-quantum security adoption in Latin America [1]. Johann Polecsak, Co-Founder and CTO of QANplatform, added that the collaboration underscores the increasing demand for quantum-resistant blockchain solutions and demonstrated QANplatform’s scalability and reliability in real-world applications [1].

ITTI has established a strong presence in Argentina, Brazil, and Colombia, with plans to expand to three additional countries by 2025. The company employs over 1,200 professionals and has received recognition for its ITTI Secure solution, which streamlines document management with qualified digital signatures [1]. SignQuantum, developed by Quantum Software Solutions, a member of MBK Holding, is designed to protect against quantum threats by offering a seamless integration with existing e-signature software [1].

The partnership aligns with the broader shift toward quantum-safe infrastructure, particularly in the financial sector. As quantum computing capabilities advance, the risks of “time travel” attacks—where digital signatures can be retroactively altered—grow more pronounced [1]. By adopting quantum-resistant solutions now, organizations can mitigate future vulnerabilities and maintain compliance with emerging regulatory standards.

This collaboration represents a strategic step forward for ITTI and SignQuantum, addressing an urgent need in the digital transformation landscape. It also reinforces the growing importance of quantum-resistant technologies in securing digital assets and transactions for the future.
