QANplatform - the quantum-resistant blockchain platform - is proud to announce its membership in the Linux Foundation and its participation in the Linux Foundation's Post-Quantum Cryptography Alliance (PQCA) project, a group of technology leaders collaborating to safeguard digital infrastructures against quantum-era threats.

The recent findings from the Technion and its partners highlight a critical weakness in the security of communication links used by industrial controllers. As these controllers are central to the functioning of our essential infrastructure, safeguarding their communication channels is imperative.

In response to the growing quantum threat, SEALSQ has introduced the QS7001, a cutting-edge RISC-V secure hardware platform specifically designed for IoT security in the post-quantum era. The platform incorporates NIST’s recommended quantum-resistant algorithms, Kyber and Dilithium, to ensure robust protection against quantum-enabled breaches. This innovation positions SEALSQ at the forefront of the transition to post-quantum security solutions.

Scope AI Corp. is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced acquisition of the QSE Technology, pursuant to a technology agreement dated July 9, 2024 (the "Technology Agreement") with Ovryde Ltd. whereby Ovryde transferred its ownership and rights relating to delivery and application of quantum resilient entropy (the "QSE Technology").

Four researchers from the Institute of Photonics at Leibniz University Hannover have developed a new transmitter-receiver concept for transmitting entangled photons over an optical fiber. This breakthrough could enable the next generation of telecommunications technology, the quantum Internet, to be routed via optical fibers. The quantum Internet promises eavesdropping-proof encryption methods that even future quantum computers cannot decrypt, ensuring the security of critical infrastructure.

Accenture and SandboxAQ are expanding their partnership to address the critical need for enterprise data encryption that can defend against current data breaches, as well as future AI and quantum threats. Together, Accenture and SandboxAQ are helping organizations secure sensitive data and strengthen encryption across their technology portfolios. The joint offering will also provide observability across environments to help increase enterprise resilience and lower impact from third party risks.

Telefónica, leading telecommunications company, in collaboration with Warpcom, an iberian technology integrator, have teamed up with Fortinet and Quantum Xchange to develop and demonstrate the effectiveness of an innovative solution based on quantum security architecture, designed to meet the present and future needs of organizations.

Arqit Quantum Inc., a leader in quantum-safe encryption, and Telecom Italia Sparkle, the first international service provider in Italy and among the top global operators, announce the successful completion of a Proof of Concept (PoC) on the first Internet Protocol secure (IPsec) tunnel between Italy and Germany using Arqit’s Symmetric Key Agreement Platform.

In a first of its kind collaboration, Bezeq and HEQA Security have joined forces to pioneer quantum cybersecurity. This partnership sees Bezeq set to deploy an innovative encryption key distribution network, uniquely positioning it as the first Israeli telecom to fortify its infrastructure against the burgeoning threat of quantum cyber-attacks. These advanced cyber threats pose significant risks to critical sectors including finance, healthcare, and defense, underlining the urgency of preemptive security measures.
