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.

Pursuant to this agreement, the two companies will work together to combine IBM's quantum-safe technology with Telefónica Tech's experience in providing managed and professional cybersecurity services with the aim to create solutions that provide security to companies and public administrations against the new and future security risks of a post-quantum world.

Infineon Technologies AG has achieved a milestone on the way to a quantum-resilient world in collaboration with the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI). Infineon is the first company ever to receive the Common Criteria EAL6, an industry-leading certification level, for the implementation of a post-quantum cryptography algorithm in a security controller. Such cryptography enhances security for eSIM, 5G SIM and smart card applications, including personal IDs, payment cards and eHealth cards, against threats resulting from highly capable quantum computers. The world's first certification is a milestone on the way to a quantum-safe future in our daily lives.

BTQ Technologies Corp. (the "Company"), a global quantum technology company focused on securing mission-critical networks, is pleased to announce the appointment of Sean Hackett and Zach Belateche—the co-founders of Radical Semiconductor—as advisors to the company. Additionally, Anne Reinders has been appointed as Head of Cryptography.

As hybrid cloud-, AI-, and quantum-related risks upend the traditional data security paradigm, IBM is launching IBM Guardium Data Security Center – allowing organizations to protect data in any environment, throughout its full lifecycle, and with unified controls.

EALSQ Corp, a company that focuses on developing and selling Semiconductors, PKI and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, today announces its intention to complete traditional existing Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) technology with advanced Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and post-quantum semiconductors.

The SandboxAQ Security Suite is an end-to-end, cryptographic-agility platform that provides a full inventory of existing cryptography use, including vulnerability and compliance analysis, as well as a path to centrally-managed, robust and agile cryptography. The result is protection from today’s attacks, as well as security against the future threat of a large-scale quantum computer.
