Infleqtion is participating in Europe’s premier cyber defense exercise, Defence Cyber Marvel 3 (DCM3). The event, organized by the Army Cyber Association, aims to advance understanding of technologies crucial to network security, particularly quantum technology. Infleqtion will provide access to Oxford Quantum Circuits’ 32-qubit OQC Toshiko superconducting quantum computer through its flagship software platform, Superstaq. Participants will explore quantum computing’s potential in network security. Infleqtion’s recent achievements include developing a quantum computing testbed for the National Quantum Computing Centre and launching Oqtant, the world’s first quantum matter service.
Infleqtion’s Role in Defence Cyber Marvel 3 Event
Infleqtion, a company specializing in quantum technology, has announced its involvement in the Defence Cyber Marvel 3 (DCM3) event. DCM3, organized by the Army Cyber Association, is a leading cyber defense exercise in Europe. It brings together teams from various sectors, including defense, government agencies, industry partners, and international allies, to address cyber threats in a simulated environment.
The event, which runs from February 11 to February 16, aims to highlight and promote understanding of advanced technologies that are vital to network security. Quantum technology is a particular focus of this event. Infleqtion will offer participants access to Oxford Quantum Circuits’ 32-qubit OQC Toshiko superconducting quantum computer via Superstaq, Infleqtion’s primary quantum software platform. This setup will mimic real-world situations where secure and efficient data management is crucial.
Quantum Computing in Network Security
Participants in the DCM3 event will have the opportunity to explore the potential of quantum computing in network security. They will do this by identifying maximally distinguishable quantum circuits. These circuits simulate files in a distributed database, demonstrating the efficiency and security improvements that quantum computing can provide.
Dr. Tim Ballance, Infleqtion UK president, expressed his excitement about the event. He stated that DCM3 offers a unique platform to showcase the transformative potential of quantum technology in strengthening cyber defenses. The challenge will test participants’ skills and highlight the practical applications of quantum computing in securing critical networks.
Infleqtion’s Recent Achievements and Future Plans
Infleqtion’s involvement in DCM3 continues the company’s recent successes. These include its selection to develop and deliver a quantum computing testbed for the National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) in the United Kingdom, participation in Japan’s Quantum Moonshot program, the launch of Oqtant (the world’s first quantum matter service), and the strategic acquisitions of SiNoptiq Inc. and Morton Photonics Inc.
The company recently shared an update on its progress, including a first look at its 5-year roadmap for quantum computing, in a live webinar. A summary of the announcements and a replay of the event is available on the company’s website.
