When it comes to quantum-safe security, not all options are created equal. Here's how ExeQuantum compares to building in-house, hiring consultants, or relying on open-source tools.
| Factor | ExeQuantum | In-House | Consulting | Open Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Speed to Deploy | Instant APIs & on-prem rollout | 6–18 months dev time | 3–6 months engagement | Varies, deep integration required |
| Cost | Predictable, scalable pricing | High-salaries + infra | Very high-billable hours | Low upfront, high maintenance |
| Security | Audited hybrid cryptography, threat modeling | Needs external validation | Often lacks long-term support | No guarantees, DIY auditing |
| PQC Expertise | NIST-aligned, quantum-native team | Hard to source | Rare and expensive | Community-dependent, uneven |
