A breakthrough in space communication - NASA has successfully transmitted a laser signal over 290 million miles to the Psyche spacecraft, setting a new distance record. This advancement, part of NASA’s Deep Space Optical Communications (DSOC) project, demonstrates the potential of laser-based technology to deliver data at rates up to 100 times faster than traditional radio communication. As space communication shifts to lasers, exploring data security through Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) systems is crucial to protect valuable data in this new paradigm. KETS Quantum Security chips are ideal for integrating QKD into space systems, with an optimal balance of size, weight and power (SWaP). We’re poised to support the future of quantum-safe space communication: https://buff.ly/4g6DxeW #SpaceTech #QuantumSecurity #LaserCommunications #QKD #TechInnovation #KETSQuantum #NASA #QuantumSafe #DataSecurity
In a move that underscores the critical role of quantum computing in defence and national security, IonQ was recently awarded the largest US quantum contract of 2024 by the US Air Force Research Lab. A key player in both commercial and defence sectors of quantum technology, IonQ’s year-over-year revenue growth reflects the growing demand for quantum solutions. We’re excited to see how quantum networking will start to take on greater and greater importance to drive increased uptake and advanced applications across industry sectors.

The importance of strong encryption cannot be overstated as a safeguard for both individual privacy and global security. However, recent discussions have raised concerns about potential vulnerabilities being introduced by weakening encryption standards. While these perspectives stem from legitimate safety concerns, they could carry significant risks. It is imperative that governments enhance their understanding of encryption to make informed decisions that uphold the integrity of our digital infrastructure. Explore more about the crucial need for encryption education in this article: https://buff.ly/4i7NIlq #CyberSecurity #DataPrivacy #Encryption #DigitalSecurity #GlobalSecurity #NationalSecurity
Can traditional lean start-up principles be applied to deep tech? Lean methodology emphasises rapid iteration, customer feedback and cost efficiencies to help entrepreneurs reduce market uncertainty and improve product-to-market fit. But deep tech ventures often have to contend with extended R&D cycles, complex regulatory hurdles and untested technologies which make traditional Minimum Viable Product (MVP) approaches much more difficult to implement. This article examines how deep tech start-ups can effectively tailor lean methods, like milestone-driven progress and proof-of-concept demonstrations, to balance scientific rigour with adaptive business strategies.

Yesterday, we celebrated our team Christmas party with a Sudanese cookery lesson led by Chef Eman Hassan, hosted by the amazing charity Migrateful. A fantastic evening of delicious food, team spirit and supporting a great cause - what a great way to kick off the festive season! #Christmas2024 #SudaneseCooking #Migrateful #ChristmasParty
The recent advancements from Attochron in free-space optical communication (FSO) are pushing the boundaries of secure connectivity. Their ALTIS-7 system uses lasers to deliver broadband, offering speeds up to 10 Gbps with significantly lower deployment costs than traditional fibre optics. This technology could make all the difference to businesses and communities in remote or underserved areas, providing a much-needed alternative to other broadband solutions. It also has the potential to integrate with quantum-safe encryption: like satellites, the infrastructure can be used to distribute quantum-safe keys, ensuring secure communication. At KETS Quantum Security, we’re always excited to see how these innovations in broadband and encryption are coming together to shape the future of secure, reliable internet for all: https://buff.ly/3Ns5mSE #SpaceTech #TechInnovation #Connectivity #HighSpeedInternet #QKD
In a major advancement in quantum technology, Rigetti and Riverlane have successfully combined control hardware expertise with quantum computing hardware and software to demonstrate real-time, low-latency quantum error correction on their 84-qubit system. This experiment addresses one of the field’s greatest challenges, bringing us closer to the ultimate goal of building fault-tolerant quantum computers capable of transforming industries and solving complex problems beyond the reach of classical systems. It also represents a critical step towards realising commercially viable quantum computing: https://buff.ly/3ZtRcGD #QuantumComputing #QuantumErrorCorrection #Innovation #FutureOfTech #QuantumTech
