SandboxAQ Joins UNICC AI Hub to Boost Global Cybersecurity

SandboxAQ has become a founding member of the United Nations International Computing Centre (UNICC) AI Hub, which aims to provide AI solutions and resources to over 100 UN entities and international organizations worldwide.

The UNICC, the largest strategic partner for digital solutions and cybersecurity within the UN system, will integrate SandboxAQ’s AQtive Guard unified encryption management platform to offer AI-powered cryptographic discovery services. This collaboration will help organizations identify vulnerable cryptography—such as outdated algorithms, keys, and certificates—across their IT infrastructure, including applications, networks, and filesystems. The service will equip members with the insights needed to upgrade cryptographic security and prepare for future threats, including AI- and quantum-based attacks.

Sameer Chauhan, Director of UNICC, expressed excitement over the new partnership: “Over the last five decades, UNICC has continually expanded the diverse technology services designed for the UN family, including fostering strategic partnerships with trusted partners like SandboxAQ. Their innovative quantum, AI, and cybersecurity solutions will be a valuable addition to the AI Hub.”

The UNICC AI Hub, launched as a center of excellence, will focus on deploying AI within the UN system and other global organizations. The Hub will bring together top experts, partners, and knowledge to help accelerate positive global impact. It will provide training and expertise in predictive, generative, and quantitative AI solutions that are secure, compliant, and tailored for the UN system. SandboxAQ and other members will collaborate on scaling AI projects, ensuring data integrity, ethical compliance, and optimal model performance.

In addition to its cybersecurity contributions, SandboxAQ will help the UNICC roll out additional quantitative AI solutions powered by Large Quantitative Models (LQMs). These solutions are expected to drive innovations in areas such as post-quantum cryptography, predictive analysis, and sustainable development goals, including clean water, health, climate action, and affordable energy.

Stefan Leichenauer, VP of Engineering at SandboxAQ, emphasized the significance of the AI Hub: “As AI continues to transform the digital economy, the UNICC’s creation of a one-stop shop for AI expertise and solutions is a major step forward. We’re proud to be a founding member and look forward to supporting its mission to tackle global challenges.”

Through this partnership, SandboxAQ is set to play a critical role in advancing cybersecurity and AI solutions to address some of the world’s most pressing challenges.
