Applied Quantum is the first professional services firm dedicated to quantum technologies across computing, communications, sensing, and simulation. We deliver quantum-focused end-to-end advisory, R&D, and systems integration. On the security front we execute cryptographic inventories and cryptographic bills of materials (CBOMs), build enterprise crypto agility, plan and deliver PQC migrations and hybrid patterns, and design quantum safe networks (including QKD where warranted), with governance and compliance built in. The result is a de-risked path from exploration to business outcomes – without hype or lock in.

Quantum Motion
Quantum Motion is a London-based quantum computing company pioneering a silicon-based approach to building scalable quantum computers. Founded in 2017 by UCL’s Prof. John Morton and Oxford’s Prof. Simon Benjamin, the startup spun out of those universities to harness traditional ...
Quantum Computing Due-Diligence: A Field Guide to Evaluating Startups, Technologies, and Claims
Over the years, I’ve developed a personal toolkit - a field guide - for evaluating quantum startups and their claims. The goal is to neither be swept up by the mystique nor dismiss genuine progress. This balance is crucial: the ...
Analysis of Quantinuum Helios, a 98‑Qubit Trapped‑Ion Quantum Computer
In November 2025, Quantinuum unveiled Helios, a new 98-qubit quantum processor that pushes the frontier of quantum computing with a novel trapped-ion architecture. It also published an accompanying paper on arXiv "Helios: A 98-qubit trapped-ion quantum computer." Helios is based ...
Why We Need a Quantum Security ISAC
Quantum computing promises revolutionary capabilities, but it also poses unprecedented threats to cybersecurity. Experts warn of a looming “Quantum Apocalypse” scenario - the day when a sufficiently advanced quantum computer can crack encryption like RSA or ECC, exposing sensitive data ...
Securing Quantum Computers – Threat at the Quantum-Classical Interface
A global race is on to build cryptographically relevant quantum computers (CRQCs) - machines powerful enough to break current encryption. Governments and industry are pouring billions into quantum R&D, and intelligence analysts scrutinize whether a geopolitical rival might secretly be ...
Q-Day Isn’t an Outage – It’s a Confidence Crisis
Cybersecurity lore often paints Q-Day (the moment a quantum computer cracks RSA/ECC encryption) as an instant "Quantum Apocalypse" where every system gets hacked immediately. Planes falling from the sky, banks drained in seconds, an overnight digital Armageddon - if that ...
Post-Quantum Negligence: Legal Risks of Failing to Prepare for the Quantum Threat
Quantum computing is no longer a far-off hypothesis - it’s a rapidly emerging reality that could render today’s encryption obsolete. For CISOs and their boards, this means a new kind of cybersecurity crisis is on the horizon. Sensitive data that ...
Sovereignty in the Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Era
Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) is entering the standards stage, with the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently selecting the first quantum-resistant algorithms. However, the future of PQC will not be as straightforward as simply adopting NIST’s choices globally ...
Trust Now, Forge Later (TNFL) – The Overlooked Quantum Threat
What is "Trust Now, Forge Later" (TNFL)? Most discussions about quantum computing threats focus on “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later” (HNDL) - the idea that adversaries can collect encrypted data today and store it, hoping a future quantum computer will break ...
