Regulated industries

Financial services, insurance, and healthcare carry data that must stay confidential for decades.

Your examiners, your board, and your customers are asking for a quantum-readiness plan. The systems that hold your most sensitive records were not built for a cryptographic rewrite. The Platform adds quantum-safe protection to them, on your own traffic, in a scoped pilot first.

What is at stake

Encrypted traffic taken today can be decrypted once a quantum computer can do it. Transaction records, policy and claims files, and patient records all carry confidentiality lifetimes measured in decades, which is longer than the encryption protecting them is expected to last. Regulators and boards are asking when you will be ready.

Sector applications

Financial services and capital markets

Trading, settlement, and payment traffic between sites, where an intercepted or delayed message has a cost, and where one trusted clock matters.

Capabilities

Quantum key distribution

Encryption keys exchanged between nodes over metropolitan fiber. Any attempt to intercept the exchange is detectable.

Running at Albuquerque, New Mexico and Mesa, Arizona, exchanging keys between the nodes.

Quantum timing

A quantum optical clock distributing synchronization that does not depend on GPS.

Running at Albuquerque, New Mexico, distributing synchronization from a quantum optical clock.

Insurance and reinsurance

Policy and claims records that stay sensitive for the life of the policyholder, moving between core systems, partners, and clouds.

Capabilities

Quantum key distribution

Encryption keys exchanged between nodes over metropolitan fiber. Any attempt to intercept the exchange is detectable.

Running at Albuquerque, New Mexico and Mesa, Arizona, exchanging keys between the nodes.

Dual-layer encryption

NIST post-quantum cryptography paired with SQS Holdline, a streaming one-time pad with port obfuscation. An adversary must defeat both at once.

In integration at the live sites.

Healthcare and life sciences

Patient records and research data with confidentiality obligations that outlast any system they are stored on.

Capabilities

Quantum random numbers

Key material drawn from a quantum source.

Available to the Platform.

Integration model

SQS nodes are deployed in pairs. Your traffic moves through them, and the Platform's protection applies to it. No system is replaced or rewritten. As quantum sensing and computing mature, they are deployed through the same infrastructure. You connect once, and the Platform grows underneath you.

Existing systems

Traffic moves through SQS nodes. Your applications are not modified.

The SQS Platform

Quantum-secure network nodes you connect to, delivered as infrastructure

Protected transport

Your traffic moves between sites through SQS nodes. Your applications are not modified.

Capabilities in detail

Validation and evidence

A pilot is fixed price, scoped to a specific system or data flow, and run under conditions agreed up front. It is live within 90 days of signature and ends with measured results.

  1. Scope

    We agree the system or data flow, the conditions, and what counts as success.

  2. Deploy

    SQS stands up the pilot in a secured sandbox and connects it to the Platform, live within 90 days of signature.

  3. Run

    The pilot runs against the agreed conditions, on your traffic.

  4. Results

    The results, measured against the objective, and a proposal for what a production deployment would look like for your organization.

See the Platform first

Demonstrations run at Albuquerque by appointment, either in person or over a secure video briefing. Attendee names are confirmed in advance. We walk through live key exchange so your team can evaluate the Platform before scoping a pilot.

A staged path

Notes for investors

Built for standards that will change

The Platform is built to move traffic between classical encryption, post-quantum cryptography, and quantum-delivered keys as standards change and algorithms age. NIST deprecated SIKE during its own selection process. No algorithm is permanent, and the Platform does not depend on any single one.

The SQS Platform

Secured Quantum Services (SQS) designs, deploys, and operates multi-vendor quantum-secure network nodes. SQS does not build quantum computers. It makes quantum power accessible to the systems you already run, and SQS handles the physics.

A Platform pilot on your own data flow

A pilot covers one of your own systems or data flows. We agree the scope and the conditions before anything is installed, and the pilot concludes with results measured against what we agreed upon.
