AIX Global Innovations Claims Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing (FTQC) on Rented Hardware. Their Own Paper Says Otherwise.
AIX Global Innovations claims FTQC on rented IBM hardware at one physical qubit per logical qubit. Their own paper reveals they operate at code distance 1, which by definition corrects zero errors. Here is what the paper actually says.

Quantum Snake Oil Is Flooding the News Cycle — and the Industry Is Letting It Happen
Three extraordinary quantum claims in two weeks, none peer-reviewed, all tied to commercial events. The quantum industry's credibility problem is accelerating, and the people paying the price are the enterprises trying to make real migration decisions.

France’s ANSSI Will Block PQC-Free Products From Certification Starting 2027
ANSSI will stop certifying security products without post-quantum cryptography from 2027. France's de facto procurement gate mirrors the CNSA 2.0 timeline and adds regulatory pressure for vendors across Europe's supply chain.

Europe’s Quantum Sovereignty Problem: The Right Diagnosis, the Wrong Prescription
The EU's tech sovereignty package names quantum as a strategic priority. But its instruments remain calibrated for research, not for the industrial scaling that sovereignty requires.

QuEra Announces Libra: 256 Logical Qubits on Amazon Braket by 2028
QuEra's Libra targets 256 error-corrected logical qubits and a one-in-a-million error rate on Amazon Braket by 2028. Every building block has been demonstrated in peer-reviewed research. This is either the most credible fault-tolerance roadmap in quantum computing, or the most…

America Just Made the Case for Quantum Sovereignty
Washington ordered two of the most capable AI models offline for every customer on the planet, and it took hours. I keep getting asked why the world wants its own quantum stack. Here is the cleanest answer I have.

NIST Begins Wiring Post-Quantum Cryptography Into Federal PIV Credentials
NIST published working drafts that would add ML-DSA and ML-KEM support to the federal Personal Identity Verification standards. The dual-stack approach preserves existing classical credentials while adding PQC key references, certificate containers, and data objects for incremental deployment.

Nobody Should Be Buying Proprietary Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Algorithms
Five LinkedIn pitches in one day, each promising provably unbreakable encryption. A tour through cryptography's graveyard shows why unvetted algorithms fail, and how to check any vendor's claims in one afternoon.

The GRC Playbook for Quantum Security
Quantum risk sits awkwardly in most enterprise risk frameworks — too long-horizon for the security team, too technical for the risk committee, too uncertain for the actuaries. This article gives GRC teams the KRIs, governance structures, and regulatory monitoring processes…

The SOC Quantum Playbook: Detection Rules, Threat Intelligence, and Incident Response
Your SOC already monitors for TLS downgrades and data exfiltration. Quantum security extends those capabilities with new detection rules, threat intelligence requirements, and incident response playbooks that most teams have not yet built.
