SPTel, SpeQtral to build SG's first nationwide quantum-safe network

The network will use quantum cryptography to achieve unprecedented levels of security.

The Infocomm Media Development Authority of Singapore (IMDA) has tapped SPTel, ST Engineering and SP Group's joint venture, and SpeQtral to build the National Quantum-Safe Network Plus (NQSN+).

NQSN+ is an interoperable network fortified with quantum encryption capabilities. It will provide data protection for critical government and commercial applications.

NQSN+ will utilise quantum cryptography to ensure secure transmission of sensitive information and enhance security against cryptographic attacks.

The award of the NQSN+ project builds on SPTel and SpeQtral's successful trials in quantum-secure networks on the former's diverse fibre network in 2022.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
