TQ Technologies Corp. , a global quantum technology company focused on securing mission-critical networks, is pleased to announce the incorporation and registration of its Australian entity, BTQ Technologies Australia Pty Ltd (BTQ AU), with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) as of June 7, 2024.

Currently scheduled for launch next year, QEYSSat will carry this small quantum source into space where it will send polarization-encoded photons between itself and ground stations on Earth. ReFQ is a small black box, built to withstand the vibrations of launch and the conditions of space. It has undergone rigorous in-lab testing and is now ready to be shipped to the researchers’ collaborator, Honeywell Aerospace, who is responsible for integrating this source into the main satellite.

Gathering eight recognized members of the cybersecurity sector, the Hyperform consortium, funded by France 2030 and the European Union, is dedicated to developing quantum-safe solutions capable of protecting sensitive data from potential attacks from quantum computers.

A leading company in post-quantum cryptography, IDEMIA Secure Transactions has engaged in a research agreement with IIT Hyderabad, one of India’s leading technology institutes, to empower future innovators to forge highly secure solutions.

Next-generation communications security startup Q*Bird has raised a €2.5 million round to accelerate its growth in the emerging quantum security market.

SpeQtral, a leading quantum communications technology company, and Toshiba Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd. (TAPL), a subsidiary of Toshiba Corporation, are set to present their latest quantum key distribution (QKD) products and services at the highly anticipated Asia Tech Singapore (ATxSG) 2024 event.

Toshiba Europe Ltd today announced it has developed a fully on-chip quantum random number generator ready for serial assembly. This advance will enable the mass manufacture of this quantum security technology, bringing its application to a much wider range of real-life scenarios.

Quantum security startup Q*Bird has begun a partnership with the Port of Rotterdam, to upgrade its communications at a time when the security of critical infrastructure is a high priority around the world. Staying ahead of emerging security threats is critical for Europe’s largest port.

evolutionQ, a leading quantum-safe cybersecurity company, today unveiled MultimodalKES™, a new cryptographic protocol that enables the establishment of end-to-end (E2E) encryption keys for long-term secure, quantum-safe communications. In support of the new protocol, evolutionQ issued a corresponding white paper at the 10th annual ETSI/IQC Quantum Safe Cryptography Conference in Singapore.
