About Quantum Offense

Researching threats to quantum computing.

Founded in Spring 2025, Quantum Offense is conducting private research into threats to quantum computing platforms and the forensic methods needed to investigate, detect, and protect against them.

Our work spans the quantum computing stack, from low-level instructions to human-driven development environments. We are translating that research into a new generation of detection and response solutions for enterprises investing in quantum software, backed by some of the most experienced engineers in the fields of threat detection and prevention.

Quantum Offense is seed-backed and advised by accomplished leaders in cybersecurity.

Gary Golomb

Chief Research Officer, Founder

Gary Golomb has spent 25 years building companies in threat research, digital forensics, machine learning, and detection engineering.

He founded Awake Security, one of the first Network Detection and Response (NDR) platforms, which was named the top NDR in the NAV Forrester Wave after Arista Networks acquired it. He was the first employee and researcher at Cylance, credited with developing the first AI-based EDR, making traditional AV obsolete. He joined NetWitness early after it acquired his endpoint data discovery and forensics product company. His work in threat research and intrusion detection dates to the Dragon IDS in 2001.

His current work focuses on threats to quantum computing platforms and the forensic capabilities needed to understand them.
