By combining Sparkle\u2019s QSI leadership, Arqit\u2019s quantum-safe encryption, and high-performance optical capabilities, the project demonstrates a scalable, real-world solution for quantum-resistant optical networking. This lays the groundwork for more resilient data networks worldwide.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\u201cSecuring the world\u2019s data networks against emerging threats requires solutions that are both effective and practical,\u201d said Andy Leaver, CEO of Arqit. \u201cTelecom operators are looking for proven, low-disruption paths to quantum-safe security, and this POC demonstrates a ready-now path. It shows that quantum-safe encryption can be embedded directly into existing optical infrastructure, protecting high-capacity data links without disrupting performance or operations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">For more details on Arqit\u2019s quantum-safe networking technology, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=PdpyHot4orPWaR9WLYDY0ZeSRPJb1KF5ZDnUkcOTDFGZfpkQ28KcrNJgo76sRF_ufzBo4ZSBy_1wGtDv2xFYHGdUm6HH7jHSE6LQ6WR5XNo=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">www.arqitgroup.com.<\/a> \u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n        <strong>Notes to Editors <\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About Sparkle<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Sparkle is TIM Group\u2019s global operator, first international service provider in Italy and among the top worldwide, offering a full range of infrastructure and global connectivity services \u2013 capacity, IP, SD-WAN, colocation, IoT connectivity, roaming and voice &#8211; to national and international Carriers, OTTs, ISPs, Media\/Content Providers, and multinational enterprises.

(Nasdaq: ARQQ, ARQQW) supplies a unique encryption software service which makes the communications links of any networked device or cloud machine secure against both current and future forms of attack on encryption \u2013 even from a quantum computer. Compatible with NSA CSfC Components and meeting the demands of NSA CSfC Symmetric Key Management Requirements Annexe 1.2. and RFC 8784, Arqit\u2019s Symmetric Key Agreement Platform uses a lightweight software agent that allows end point devices to create encryption keys locally in partnership with any number of other devices. The keys are computationally secure and facilitate Zero Trust Network Access. It can create limitless volumes of keys with any group size and refresh rate and can regulate the secure entrance and exit of a device in a group. The agent is lightweight and will thus run on the smallest of end point devices. The product sits within a growing portfolio of granted patents. It also works in a standards compliant manner which does not oblige customers to make a disruptive rip and replace of their technology. Arqit has been recognised as an IDC Innovator for Post Quantum Cryptography (2024) and is a multi-award-winning leader in quantum-safe security, including two GSMA Global Mobile Awards.
