On August 25, 2026, Fobi AI Inc. launched AltID 3.0, a platform integrating sovereign identity with satellite-based location verification to establish both identity and location, combining physical and digital security. AltID 3.0 represents Fobi AI’s expansion into post-quantum cybersecurity, shifting from single-point verification to continuous authentication across digital and physical spaces. “Governments and enterprises around the world are increasingly focused on three critical requirements as AI adoption accelerates: sovereignty, cybersecurity and post quantum security,” stated Rob Anson, President and CEO of Fobi. “AltID 3.0 delivers across all three.”

AltID 3.0: Sovereign Identity and Continuous Authentication

Fobi AI launched AltID 3.0 on August 25, 2026, entering the post-quantum cybersecurity field and moving away from traditional, point-in-time identity verification systems. Unlike conventional know your client checks, AltID 3.0 aims to establish a continuously authenticated digital identity usable across both digital and physical spaces. This process begins with a verified KYC check, after which underlying personal information is removed, leaving a trusted digital credential controlled by the individual via their mobile wallet.

This approach builds upon the privacy foundations of the original AltID platform, designed to verify only necessary credentials while minimizing personal data storage. A key addition is verified presence; utilizing satellite positioning, AltID 3.0 connects verified identity with location and time, confirming who is using a credential and where they are. The platform’s security is built upon post-quantum cryptography, preparing Fobi’s infrastructure for the evolving quantum computing landscape. AltID 3.0 is positioned as a core component of an ecosystem intended to strengthen commercial opportunities and expand customer relationships.

Governments and enterprises around the world are increasingly focused on three critical requirements as AI adoption accelerates: sovereignty, cybersecurity and post quantum security.

Ivy Delaney has been working with neural networks and machine learning since the mid-nineties, back when a couple of hidden layers and a long afternoon of training counted as ambitious. She has watched the field go from academic curiosity to the thing quietly running underneath everything, and she brings that long view to quantum computing. For Quantum Zeitgeist she covers the ground where the two fields meet. That means quantum machine learning and the variational algorithms it leans on, and it also means the less glamorous but more interesting story of classical machine learning already doing real work inside quantum machines, decoding error-correcting codes, calibrating noisy hardware and learning the error models that simulators depend on. She writes about the hardware those algorithms have to run on too, and about the post-quantum cryptography scramble that the same hardware has set off. Her stories typically start with the paper, whether that is peer-reviewed work, conference proceedings or an arXiv preprint, with the source linked so you can hold a claim up against the research it came from. She is unimpressed by benchmarks that will not say what they beat, and by demonstrations that only work in the press release.
