Switzerland, SEALSQ, and WISeKey are developing quantum-secure satellites to protect military and critical infrastructure from cyber threats.
SEALSQ, WISeKey, and Switzerland’s Armed Forces are advancing quantum-secure satellite technology to enhance national cybersecurity and reduce reliance on foreign providers.
Since 2022, the collaboration has developed post-quantum encrypted satellite systems using trusted digital identities and quantum-resistant semiconductors to protect military and critical infrastructure communications.
The effort responds to a 2024 WIRED report revealing that unencrypted data can be intercepted with low-cost equipment.
Testing includes Low Earth Orbit IoT and battlefield internet applications, with a focus on end-to-end encryption and zero-trust network design.
The project, backed by the Swiss government, aims to achieve sovereign satellite coverage and is pending parliamentary approval for full deployment.
