Eric Adolphe is a mission-driven technologist and the founder of Forward Edge-AI, a company pioneering quantum-resistant cybersecurity hardware devices for the world’s most critical systems. A former FAA engineer who designed life-safety technologies to prevent aircraft collisions, Adolphe brings four decades of experience developing systems that protect lives in the air, on the ground, and now in cyberspace.

Under his leadership, Forward Edge-AI co-developed Isidore Quantum®, the first NSA-aligned, hardware-based post-quantum encryption device tested across air, land, sea, and space. Isidore integrates artificial intelligence with post-quantum cryptography to deliver “Drop-In PQC™” — quantum-safe protection that installs in minutes and requires no software migration.

Adolphe’s work sits at the intersection of AI, quantum resilience, and national security, addressing the threat of “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later” attacks that endanger global infrastructure. His team’s innovations have been validated by the U.S. Army, Air Force, Space Force, and Microsoft, setting the benchmark for post-quantum readiness in defense and critical infrastructure.

A serial entrepreneur and ethics award recipient, Adolphe’s career has been defined by one consistent goal: to safeguard lives through technology. Today, as the United States and its allies accelerate the PQC transition under Executive Order 14144, his leadership and insight are shaping how nations defend their data in the quantum era.
