KDDI Research, Inc. (“KDDI Research”), and Toshiba Digital Solutions Corporation (“Toshiba Digital Solutions”) have developed a multiplexing technology for quantum key distribution (QKD) that is theoretically impossible to eavesdrop. This technology assigns secret keys to the C-band and high-volume data signals to the O-band, enabling multiplexed transmission over a single optical fiber. Furthermore, utilizing this technology, we have successfully transmitted secret keys and high-capacity data signals at 33.4 Tbps over 80 km for the first time.

NIST has chosen a new algorithm for post-quantum encryption called HQC, which will serve as a backup for ML-KEM, the main algorithm for general encryption.

The U.S. Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has finalized its principal set of encryption algorithms designed to withstand cyberattacks from a quantum computer.

The European Space Agency (ESA) has selected AROBS Polska for the Post-Quantum Cryptography Algorithms for Satellite Telecommunication Applications (PQC ASTrAL) project. AROBS Polska will develop and implement, under ESA’s Advanced Research in Telecommunications Systems (ARTES) Space Systems for Safety & Security programme, an innovative cryptographic system for satellite communications.

AROBS Polska, part of the AROBS Group, an entrepreneurial technology company listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange, has been selected by the European Space Agency (ESA) to develop and implement the Post-Quantum Cryptography Algorithms for Satellite Telecommunication Applications (PQC ASTrAL) project. This project carried out under the ESA Advanced Research in Telecommunications Systems (ARTES) Space Systems for Safety and Security (4S) program within ESA’s Connectivity and Secure Communications directorate, aims to develop a cryptographic key management system for satellites based on post-quantum algorithms, ensuring the protection of communications against emerging threats posed by quantum computers.

IDEMIA Secure Transactions (IST) is announcing today an advanced post-quantum accelerator based on Keccak, a core function widely used in new cryptographic algorithms.

Quantum Industries GmbH (QI), a global leader in quantum secure communications for critical infrastructure, proudly announces the successful completion of its seed financing round, raising a total of $10 million in fresh capital.

Synergy Quantum, a global leader in military-grade quantum-resistant cybersecurity technologies, has unveiled the SynQ Communication Box—a highly secure, portable, and all-in-one communication platform designed to protect military, government, financial, and enterprise communications against both current and future cyber threats.

SEALSQ Corp ("SEALSQ" or "Company"), a company that focuses on developing and selling Semiconductors, PKI, and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, announced today a significant milestone in its Quantum Roadmap with the advancement of Quantum Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (“Quantum ASIC”) projects across multiple countries, including France, India, Spain, and USA. This strategic initiative underscores SEALSQ’s commitment to innovation in the post-quantum era, delivering secure and high-performance semiconductor solutions tailored for emerging quantum-resistant applications.

American Binary today announced a breakthrough in cybersecurity with the launch of Ambit Client, the first and only enterprise VPN solution to achieve full compliance with the NSA's CNSA 2.0 standard for quantum resistance. This milestone arrives as organizations face an immediate threat from "Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" (HNDL) attacks, where cybercriminals are already collecting encrypted data to decrypt it once quantum computers become available.
