Quantum encryption leader and unmanned systems supplier actively manage data security on autonomous drones in the dynamic environment of an integrated battlespace<\/h4>\n

LONDON, July 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Arqit Quantum Inc.<\/a> (\u201cArqit\u201d), a leader in quantum encryption technology, and Blue Bear Systems Research Ltd.<\/a> (\u201cBlue Bear\u201d), a pioneering supplier of unmanned and autonomous systems for defence and civil customers, today announced the successful demonstration of a quantum safe communication channel to secure data transmissions\u2060\u2014powered by Arqit\u2019s QuantumCloud\u2122 technology hosted on Blue Bear\u2019s Smart Connect\u2122 device, an \u2018inter-swarm\u2019 autonomy brain that tasks multiple uncrewed systems to deliver collaborative multi-domain missions.<\/p>\n

This is the first time C4ISR quantum safe communications with rotating symmetric keys has been enabled using a lightweight software protocol for small drones.<\/p>\n

On 29\u00a0June and 12 July 2022, Blue Bear simulated and flew mock ISR (Information Surveillance and Reconnaissance) missions using their ATAK-hosted Centurion\u2122 mission system for C2 (Command and Control) of a drone using full symmetric encryption of task and target data secured by Arqit\u2019s symmetric key agreement platform. During the mission, image data of potential targets was encrypted and relayed securely using Arqit\u2019s quantum safe communications tunnel. Additionally, through active authorisation of endpoints and frequent rotation of symmetric keys, the attack surface area was limited and perfect secrecy of the data was achieved.<\/p>\n

The combined Arqit and Blue Bear\u2019s quantum safe communication solution is scalable. It can be applied to any data transmission path between operators, mission systems and crewed\/uncrewed vehicles. The solution can be used on any open or closed network in C2 of air, land or sea borne systems and is agnostic of the communication bearers (e.g. point-to-point datalinks, mesh datalinks, 5G, SATCOM, fibre and optical links).<\/p>\n

Arqit Founder, Chairman and CEO, David Williams, said: <\/strong>\u201cWe are pleased to prove that Arqit is the solution of choice for future proofed protection of highly dynamic assets like swarming drones. The versatility of Arqit\u2019s symmetric key agreement software agent means it can instantly layer into any part of the battlespace network stack with full compatibility and interoperability with existing network infrastructure, protocols and quantum safe encryption algorithms. The promise of Multi Domain Integration can only be met with stronger, simpler encryption.\u201d<\/p>\n

Blue Bear CEO, Dr Yoge Patel, said: <\/strong>\u201cIntegrating Arqit\u2019s technology onto our Smart Connect\u2122 avionics gives our customers an operational advantage in multi-domain operations and beyond. With authentication on a continuous basis, even if an asset becomes compromised it can be deactivated in real time. This has not been seen before. Our demonstration with Arqit represents a milestone development in the security of crewed and uncrewed applications.\u201d<\/p>\n

About Arqit <\/strong><\/p>\n

Arqit supplies a unique quantum encryption Platform-as-a-Service which makes the communications links of any networked device secure against current and future forms of attack \u2013 even from a quantum computer. Arqit\u2019s product, QuantumCloud\u2122, enables any device to download a lightweight software agent, which can create encryption keys in partnership with any other device. The keys are computationally secure, optionally one-time use and zero trust. QuantumCloud\u2122 can create limitless volumes of keys in limitless group sizes and can regulate the secure entrance and exit of a device in a group. The addressable market for QuantumCloud\u2122 is every connected device.<\/p>\n

About Blue Bear<\/strong><\/p>\n

Blue Bear are pioneers of autonomy and unmanned systems; evolving unmanned concepts, regardless of size, at a pace unmatched by other organisations. We deliver efficient solutions, professional services and commercial results, supporting both military and civil markets worldwide, with unmatched pace, agility, passion and innovation. Blue Bear\u2019s track record in innovative research and flight tests has won us several awards and positioned the company at the leading edge of UAS development in the UK and Europe.<\/p>\n

Blue Bears Smart Connect\u2122, having been deployed for 5 years, successfully brings different and multiple UAS into highly autonomous collaborative swarms for UK militaries. It is used to scale combat mass in MDO by acting as the gateway to autonomy algorithms through its modular, expandable and platform agnostic architecture.<\/p>\n
