Arqit Quantum Inc. and Advanced International Electronic Equipment Company WLL (AIEE) announced the purchase of a licence for QuantumCloud??, Arqit's Symmetric Key Agreement Platform. Under the deal, AIEE will harness Arqit's Symmetrical Key Agreement Platform to offer unparalleled levels of resilience, security and privacy across open and closed networks, protecting customers from both current and future cyber threats including spoofing, harvesting and tampering. This important partnership builds on AIEE's existing services that protect and manage data, communications, devices, sensors and network infrastructures across governments, critical infrastructure and commercial enterprises.

The threat surface facing governments and enterprises is expanding with the rapid advancement of computing technology and the actions of cyber adversaries, which is leaving traditional encryption methods vulnerable to cyber attacks. QuantumCloud?? is crypto agile and simple to integrate and scale into existing networks.

It forms both a zero trust and split trust network, creating encryption keys at any endpoint and removing the risks associated with key distribution. QuantumCloud?? protects against todays cyber vulnerabilities and the future quantum threat, securing information in transit and at rest from applications, to the cloud, and from IoT/phone to gateways.
