\n WISeSat.Space Advances Post-Quantum-Ready Satellite Communications to Support U.S. Quantum-Security Objectives<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

\n Integrating SEALSQ semiconductor technology to support secure satellite operations, sovereign communications and critical infrastructure connectivity<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

GENEVA, Switzerland \u2014 October 12, 2026 \u2014 WISeSat.Space (Nasdaq: SAIQ) (\u201cWISeSat.Space\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) today outlined its strategy to integrate post-quantum cryptography (\u201cPQC\u201d) into its next-generation satellite communications and Internet of Things (\u201cIoT\u201d) architecture, supporting the migration objectives established by U.S. Executive Order 14412, Securing the Nation Against Advanced Cryptographic Attacks.<\/p>\n

The Company is developing a security architecture designed to protect communications, digital identities and satellite operations against both conventional cyberattacks and emerging quantum-computing threats. Its approach combines post-quantum semiconductor technologies from its sister company, SEALSQ Corp.\u2019s (Nasdaq: LAES) with trusted digital identity and cryptographic key management across connected devices, ground infrastructure and future satellite platforms.<\/p>\n

\u201cSecurity is a core differentiator in our strategy to build a satellite communications business serving governments, enterprises and critical infrastructure operators,\u201d said Carlos Moreira, Founder and CEO of WISeSat.Space. \u201cAs satellites become increasingly critical infrastructure for our digital economy, protecting them throughout their operational lives is central to our value proposition. Our ambition is to bring trust into every layer, from the semiconductor and connected device to the ground station and satellite. By integrating post-quantum technologies across connected devices, ground infrastructure and satellites, we aim to strengthen our competitive position, address demand for secure, sovereign communications and create long-term shareholder value.\u201d<\/p>\n

Following its October 2026 business combination and Nasdaq listing, WISeSat.Space closed a $10 million PIPE investment led by SEALSQ to accelerate the development of its quantum-resilient space architecture.<\/p>\n

\n Building a Sovereign Space Infrastructure<\/b>
\n
WISeSat.Space\u2019s existing network and partner infrastructure include access to 9 active low-earth-orbit satellites, supported by ground stations in Lausanne, Switzerland, and La L\u00ednea de la Concepci\u00f3n, Spain. This operational base supports the development of the Company\u2019s next-generation Quantum Spatial Orbital Cloud (\u201cQSOC\u201d).<\/p>\n

Its long-term roadmap targets a 100-satellite sovereign constellation by 2033, subject to financing, technical development, regulatory approvals and launch availability. Integration of the next-generation PQC architecture is being advanced through planned deployments and does not imply that every satellite currently accessible through the network already carries the same post-quantum hardware.<\/p>\n

\n Supporting the Transition to Post-Quantum Security<\/b>
\n
Issued on June 22, 2026, Executive Order 14412 directs the transition of federal information systems to NIST-approved post-quantum cryptography and supports migration planning for critical infrastructure owners and operators.<\/p>\n

For federal high-value assets and high-impact systems, excluding National Security Systems, the order sets migration objectives of December 31, 2030, for PQC key establishment and December 31, 2031, for PQC digital signatures. It also directs the development of proposed federal procurement requirements addressing applicable NIST standards.<\/p>\n

WISeSat.Space\u2019s architecture is being developed to support these objectives. Regulatory alignment and compliance will be assessed for individual implementations against applicable standards, cryptographic module validation requirements and customer procurement conditions.<\/p>\n

The Company\u2019s technology strategy draws on SEALSQ\u2019s Quantum Shield QS7001 and QVault TPM platforms, which support NIST-standardized algorithms including:<\/p>\n
