SuperQ Quantum Announces Post-Quantum Cybersecurity Progress at Qubits 2026

SuperQ Quantum Computing Inc. is making strides in safeguarding the future of data security, as announced at Qubits 2026 on January 29, 2026. Director of Post-Quantum Cybersecurity and Partnerships, Brian Beveridge, engaged with industry leaders at D-Wave Quantum Inc.’s flagship conference to showcase SuperQ’s advancements in both quantum optimization and post-quantum cybersecurity (PQC). The company’s recently launched SuperPQC™ module, integrating diagnostic and defense capabilities for both Web2 and Web3 systems, addresses the growing threat of “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later” attacks on critical infrastructure. “SuperQ is creating quantum utility today for businesses and consumers,” said Beveridge, “We view D-Wave’s quantum annealing as an important component of the quantum tech stack that we have leveraged commercially.” This positions SuperQ to offer an integrated solution for quantum utility and defense against emerging quantum threats.

SuperQ at Qubits 2026: Hybrid Computing & Cybersecurity

SuperQ Quantum Computing Inc. actively engaged with industry leaders at Qubits 2026, D-Wave’s annual quantum computing conference held January 27-28, 2026 in Boca Raton, Florida, focusing on the convergence of hybrid computing and post-quantum cybersecurity. Brian Beveridge, SuperQ’s Director of Post-Quantum Cybersecurity and Partnerships, presented the company’s approach to integrating quantum optimization with robust security measures, acknowledging the escalating threats to cryptographic infrastructure. The event showcased how quantum computing is transitioning from theoretical exploration to practical applications across diverse sectors like logistics, finance, and healthcare.

SuperQ is not solely focused on future vulnerabilities; the company has already launched its SuperPQC™ module, offering diagnostic and defensive capabilities for both current Web2 and emerging Web3 systems. This includes cryptographic vulnerability analysis, secured email, VPNs, digital signatures, and network protection at the PQC level, bolstered by a partnership with 01 Quantum and their NIST-approved IronCap™ technology. The company’s strategy centers on addressing the immediate risk of “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later” (HNDL) attacks, where data is intercepted and stored for future decryption once quantum computers become powerful enough.

SuperQ’s approach aims to deliver “secure-by-design optimization pipelines that respect data sovereignty and regulatory obligations.” Beyond defensive measures, they offer automated diagnostics and remediation tools intended for use by enterprises and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs). Beveridge highlighted the crucial need to align quantum optimization with post-quantum security as organizations pursue near-term quantum advantages. The company’s combined offering of quantum utility and defense positions them to address concerns voiced by business leaders and cybersecurity experts regarding the current state of PQC-readiness, particularly for critical infrastructure like Bitcoin private keys and health records.

SuperPQC™ Module Integrates NIST-Approved IronCap™ Technology

SuperQ Quantum Computing Inc. is bolstering its post-quantum cybersecurity (PQC) offerings with the recent integration of NIST-approved IronCap™ technology into its SuperPQC™ module, unveiled at Qubits 2026 in Boca Raton, Florida. This move addresses a growing concern within the cybersecurity community regarding vulnerabilities to future quantum computing attacks, particularly the “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later” (HNDL) threat.

The partnership with 01 Quantum, incorporating IronCap™, is central to SuperQ’s strategy of providing a comprehensive solution for both quantum utility and defense. “As the adoption of quantum optimization and quantum AI grows, enterprise information systems must also evolve to counter potential quantum cybersecurity threats.” This isn’t simply about theoretical risk; cryptocurrencies, blockchain protocols, financial records, and health data are all considered immediately vulnerable to data harvesting for future decryption. SuperQ’s approach aims to move beyond siloed security solutions, offering secure-by-design optimization pipelines that adhere to data sovereignty regulations.

Beveridge emphasized the need for organizations to simultaneously “Pursue near-term quantum advantage in logistics, finance and operations; and Confront the ‘Harvest Now, Decrypt Later’ (HNDL) threat to their cryptographic infrastructure.” By combining its PQC capabilities with its autonomous quantum optimization stack, SuperQ aims to deliver a unified and proactive defense against emerging quantum threats.

Autonomous Quantum Optimization & Post-Quantum Cybersecurity Solutions

SuperQ Quantum Computing Inc. is actively bridging the gap between quantum potential and practical security applications, demonstrated through engagement at the Qubits 2026 conference in Boca Raton, Florida. This isn’t simply about faster computation; it’s about safeguarding data in a world rapidly approaching quantum decryption capabilities, with potential impacts spanning logistics, finance, and even national security. The company’s Super™ platform is central to this strategy, delivering both optimization tools and PQC solutions.

A key concern highlighted at Qubits 2026 is the “Harvest Now, Decrypt Later” (HNDL) threat, where malicious actors are actively collecting encrypted data with the intent to decrypt it once sufficiently powerful quantum computers become available. This proactive stance addresses vulnerabilities in systems like Bitcoin, traditional finance, healthcare records, and enterprise data, all potentially at risk. The company’s integrated approach – combining AI, PQC, and quantum optimization – distinguishes it from companies treating these as isolated technologies. Furthermore, the company announced a warrant extension for 3,903,796 outstanding common share purchase warrants to May 17, 2026, facilitating future investment.
