Geneva, Switzerland, May 13, 2026 -- SEALSQ Corp ("SEALSQ" or "Company"), a company that focuses on developing and selling Semiconductors, PKI, and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, today outlined its strategic positioning to become a foundational cybersecurity and trusted semiconductor infrastructure provider for the next generation of orbital platforms and space-based data centers.

As global demand for Artificial Intelligence infrastructure accelerates beyond the physical and energy limitations of terrestrial data centers, the aerospace and AI industries are increasingly exploring orbital computing architectures capable of hosting AI processing, distributed storage, and autonomous cloud services directly in space. Recent developments across the aerospace and technology sectors validate the emergence of orbital data centers and reinforce the importance of secure, quantum-resilient infrastructure capable of protecting AI assets operating in space environments.

SEALSQ believes that future orbital cloud architecture will require an entirely new security paradigm built around trusted hardware identity, quantum-resistant encryption, secure satellite-to-satellite communications, and autonomous cybersecurity systems capable of operating across distributed orbital constellations.

SEALSQ’s post-quantum semiconductor technologies are designed to address these challenges by enabling secure hardware authentication, trusted boot processes, encrypted AI inference, and zero-trust communications between satellites, orbital compute nodes, and terrestrial infrastructures. The Company’s technologies can be integrated into next-generation space-based data centers to secure AI workloads, protect sensitive data, and defend critical infrastructure against future quantum-enabled cyber threats.

The emergence of orbital AI infrastructures creates unprecedented cybersecurity requirements. Unlike terrestrial systems, orbital infrastructures operate in remote and hostile environments where physical intervention is extremely limited, and resilience must be embedded directly at the semiconductor and system architecture levels. SEALSQ’s secure microcontrollers, cryptographic chips, and post-quantum security technologies are specifically designed for long-life deployments requiring high reliability, low power consumption, and resistance against evolving cyber threats.

The Company also sees strong synergies between space-based AI infrastructure and decentralized trust architectures powered by blockchain technologies. By combining secure semiconductors, trusted digital identities, and blockchain-enabled authentication systems, SEALSQ aims to support the development of autonomous machine-to-machine ecosystems operating securely across satellite constellations, AI agents, IoT networks, and future orbital edge computing infrastructures.

SEALSQ’s technologies are further aligned with the growing international demand for sovereign AI, sovereign cloud infrastructure, and secure European-led space technologies. As governments and enterprises seek trusted alternatives for protecting strategic AI assets and communications infrastructures, SEALSQ believes its integrated expertise in semiconductors, cybersecurity, post-quantum cryptography, and satellite security positions the Company as a critical enabler of future sovereign orbital cloud architectures.

Carlos Moreira, Founder and CEO of SEALSQ, stated: “We are at the beginning of a structural shift in how and where computing infrastructure is deployed. As the future of AI infrastructure expands beyond Earth, orbital data centers will emerge as a critical layer of the global digital economy. These space-based data centers and orbital AI clouds will require an entirely new cybersecurity architecture where trust, identity, and quantum resilience are embedded directly into the semiconductor layer. SEALSQ is uniquely positioned to become the Root of Trust for the emerging orbital AI economy by securing communications, AI processing, and autonomous digital interactions operating in space.”

SEALSQ continues to expand its post-quantum semiconductor roadmap and secure satellite technologies to support future applications in AI infrastructure, secure space communications, sovereign cloud architectures, and next-generation orbital computing systems.
