Governments Are Racing to Rebuild Encryption Before Quantum Computers Break It, and a Canadian Company Is Taking Its Toolkit to Southeast AsiaJuly 7, 2026 12:27 PM
PR Newswire (Canada) Issued on behalf of QSE - Quantum Secure Encryption Corp.QSE - Quantum Secure Encryption Corp. (CSE: QSE) (OTCQB: QSEGF) (FSE: VN80) will showcase its portfolio of post-quantum cybersecurity solutions at CYDES 2026, one of Southeast Asia's premier cybersecurity conferences, alongside a regional digital-trust partner, as part of its broader expansion across the region.VANCOUVER, BC, July 7, 2026 /CNW/ -- Equity Insider News Commentary, One of the quieter but more consequential races in technology is the effort to rebuild the world's encryption before quantum computers grow powerful enough to break it. Governments and standards bodies have set migration deadlines, regulators are turning quantum risk into a compliance requirement, and the market for solutions is beginning to form around that urgency. Into that moment steps QSE - Quantum Secure Encryption Corp. (CSE: QSE) (OTCQB: QSEGF) (FSE: VN80), a post-quantum cybersecurity company that has announced it will showcase its platform at CYDES 2026, a leading Southeast Asian cybersecurity conference, in collaboration with a regional digital-trust partner, as it pushes deeper into a region it sees as a meaningful growth opportunity. Key TakeawaysQSE - Quantum Secure Encryption Corp. (CSE: QSE) (OTCQB: QSEGF) (FSE: VN80) will participate in CYDES 2026, one of Southeast Asia's premier cybersecurity conferences, where it plans to showcase its portfolio of post-quantum cybersecurity solutions in collaboration with a regional digital-trust and cybersecurity partner.The Company plans to demonstrate practical enterprise products, including its QPrime Quantum Preparedness Assessment, QAuth quantum-ready authentication, Quantum Secure Storage, and enterprise cryptographic migration solutions.CYDES brings together government agencies, regulators, and critical infrastructure operators from across Asia-Pacific, and QSE's participation supports its broader Southeast Asia expansion strategy, following recent commercial activity within Malaysia's financial-services sector.QSE describes itself as focused on quantum-resilient data protection, identity security, secure storage, and cryptographic migration readiness, built around quantum-delivered entropy and a zero-knowledge architecture.Other publicly traded names positioned across post-quantum security and cybersecurity include SEALSQ (NASDAQ: LAES), Fortinet (NASDAQ: FTNT), Cloudflare (NYSE: NET), and Lattice Semiconductor (NASDAQ: LSCC), each distinct, most far larger, and none a proxy for QSE.The Deadline Nobody Can IgnoreTo understand why a conference appearance matters for a company like QSE, it helps to understand the problem the whole sector is organized around. Much of the encryption that protects the world's data today, from banking and healthcare records to government communications, relies on mathematical problems that conventional computers cannot solve quickly. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer could, in principle, solve some of those problems and render that encryption vulnerable. The machines capable of doing so do not exist yet, but the threat is already treated as real because of what security professionals call "harvest now, decrypt later": adversaries can collect encrypted data today and simply wait to decrypt it once the technology matures.That dynamic has turned what might sound like a distant, theoretical risk into a present-day planning problem. Standards bodies have finalized the first post-quantum cryptography standards, and governments have begun setting timelines for migrating critical systems to quantum-resistant encryption. The practical implication is that organizations cannot wait for quantum computers to arrive before acting; because migrating cryptography touches nearly every system that uses it, the work has to begin years in advance. That is what converts quantum risk from a research topic into a budget line, and it is the demand QSE and its peers are built to serve.What QSE Is Bringing to CYDESAt CYDES 2026, QSE plans to demonstrate a set of enterprise products designed to walk an organization through the practical steps of preparing for that migration. The company has described four core offerings it intends to showcase. Its QPrime Quantum Preparedness Assessment is designed to help organizations identify cryptographic exposure and prioritize migration planning, essentially a way to find where the risk lives before trying to fix it. QAuth, its quantum-ready authentication product, is designed to strengthen enterprise login and identity security. Quantum Secure Storage is designed to protect sensitive data against both current cyber threats and future quantum-enabled attacks. And a set of enterprise cryptographic migration solutions supports the longer-term planning organizations need for post-quantum security requirements.The through-line across those products is practicality. Rather than positioning itself around the far-off moment when quantum computers can break encryption, QSE frames its platform as something organizations can begin using today: assess exposure, protect identities, secure data, and plan the migration. That framing reflects a broader reality of the post-quantum security market, where the near-term commercial opportunity lies less in dramatic breakthroughs and more in the unglamorous, compliance-driven work of inventorying systems and planning transitions."CYDES provides an important platform to engage directly with government agencies that are moving from awareness to action on post-quantum cybersecurity," said Ted Carefoot, Chief Executive Officer of QSE. "Before agencies and organizations can protect themselves, they need to understand where their encryption, identity and data risks exist. QSE's platform is designed to make that process practical, clear and manageable."Why Southeast Asia, and Why NowThe choice of venue is itself part of the story. CYDES brings together government agencies, regulators, and critical infrastructure operators from across the Asia-Pacific region to discuss emerging cyber threats and next-generation security technologies, exactly the audience a post-quantum security company needs to reach. These are the organizations that hold the most sensitive long-lived data and that face the earliest regulatory pressure to act, which makes them natural first customers for quantum-readiness tools.For QSE, the appearance supports a broader Southeast Asia expansion strategy, and it follows what the company describes as recent commercial activity within Malaysia's financial-services sector. Management believes the region represents a meaningful growth opportunity as governments, critical infrastructure operators, and regulated enterprises begin evaluating how to prepare for quantum-related cybersecurity risks. In other words, the company is trying to be present in a market at the moment that market is beginning to move from awareness toward procurement. Whether that translates into meaningful revenue remains to be demonstrated, and a conference appearance is an opportunity to build relationships rather than a booked result, but the strategic logic of showing up early where demand is forming is clear."Post-quantum security is quickly moving from a technical discussion to a business and compliance priority," added Carefoot. "Events such as CYDES allow us to show that QSE is focused on practical solutions organizations can start using today, rather than waiting for the quantum threat to become an immediate operational problem." The company believes demand for quantum migration planning is accelerating as governments and standards bodies encourage organizations to assess cryptographic risk, inventory vulnerable systems, and begin planning future migration strategies.The Technology UnderneathQSE describes itself as a Canadian technology company specializing in post-quantum data security, encryption, and secure data infrastructure. According to the company, its solutions are built around quantum-delivered entropy and a zero-knowledge architecture, and are designed to protect sensitive data from both current cyber threats and future quantum-enabled attacks. Entropy, in cryptography, refers to the quality of the randomness used to generate encryption keys; better randomness makes keys harder to predict or reproduce. A zero-knowledge architecture, broadly, is one designed so that the service provider itself cannot access the underlying data it protects.The company says it serves organizations across commercial, enterprise, and public-sector environments that require long-term data confidentiality and resilience, precisely the customers for whom the harvest-now-decrypt-later threat is most pressing, because their data must stay confidential for years or decades. As with any early-stage technology company, the value of that positioning will ultimately be measured by adoption and revenue rather than by architecture alone, and investors should weigh the company's small size and stage against the scale of the opportunity it is pursuing.The Public Companies Across Post-Quantum SecurityQSE is a small, early-stage company quoted on the Canadian Securities Exchange, and it is not directly comparable to the names below. These comparisons are for industry context only; each company pursues a different technology and business model, most operate at vastly greater scale, and none is a proxy for QSE or implies any partnership or comparable performance.SEALSQ (NASDAQ: LAES) designs semiconductors and public-key infrastructure for device security, with a stated focus on post-quantum cryptography and quantum-resistant chips for connected-device, identity, and IoT markets. As one of the more visible pure-play post-quantum security names in the public markets, SEALSQ is the closest thematic reference point to the segment QSE operates in, though it pursues a hardware-centric model.Fortinet (NASDAQ: FTNT) is a large, established cybersecurity and network-security company offering firewalls, secure networking, cloud security, and endpoint protection to businesses worldwide. Fortinet has been identified by analysts as a potential beneficiary of post-quantum cryptography spending, illustrating how incumbent security platforms are positioning for the same migration wave from a very different scale.Cloudflare (NYSE: NET) provides cloud-based security and network services and has rolled out post-quantum support across parts of its platform. Like Fortinet, Cloudflare represents the large-incumbent approach to the post-quantum transition, embedding quantum-safe capabilities into an existing, broadly deployed service rather than as a standalone product.Lattice Semiconductor (NASDAQ: LSCC) makes low-power programmable chips and has positioned itself for the post-quantum transition through crypto-agile, secure hardware designed to support evolving cryptographic standards. Lattice offers a view of the semiconductor layer of the migration, where quantum-resistant capability is built into the hardware that security ultimately runs on.The Bottom LineA conference appearance is a beginning, not a milestone that changes a company's fundamentals on its own, and QSE remains a small, early-stage company whose commercial traction still has to be proven against far larger and better-capitalized competitors. But the moment it is stepping into is a real one: governments and regulators have turned post-quantum migration into a deadline-driven requirement, Southeast Asia is an early-moving region, and QSE is positioning its practical toolkit, from cryptographic assessment to authentication, storage, and migration planning, directly in front of the government and infrastructure buyers who face that requirement first. For investors tracking how the post-quantum security market takes shape, QSE's push into Southeast Asia is a concrete data point, with commercial contracts, revenue, and customer adoption the markers worth watching from here.SIGNAL OVER NOISESignal over noise.

Additional information relating to these measures is included below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” For a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results, see accompanying tables "Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures." First Quarter 2026 Highlights: • Record New Product Revenue Growth: Revenue from our new products continues to expand, led by AI-related server demand. • NVIDIA GTC 2026: Joined the NVIDIA Halos AI Systems Inspection Lab ecosystem, the first ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) accredited inspection lab for AI-driven physical systems. Lattice will engage with NVIDIA and other ecosystem members to build Halos-certified Holoscan Sensor Bridge-based designs for physical AI and to help shape best practices as the industry evolves. • Texas Instruments (TI) Edge AI Collaboration: Announced a collaboration with TI to simplify sensor integration and to scale real-time edge AI systems, leveraging TI sensing technology and the Lattice + NVIDIA Holoscan Sensor Bridge solution to enable advanced robotics and industrial applications. • Recognized for Workplace Excellence, Product Leadership and Innovation: Lattice won Embedded Computing Design's prestigious Best in Show award; was named to USA TODAY's Top Workplaces in 2026; won multiple 2026 Globee Cybersecurity Awards; was named a multi-award winner at the 2026 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards; won two Global InfoSec awards from Cyber Defense Magazine (CDM) at the 2026 RSA Conference, and was named a 2026 Environment + Energy Leader Award winner. Business Outlook - Second Quarter of 2026: • Revenue for the second quarter of 2026 is expected to be between $175 million and $195 million. • Gross margin percentage for the second quarter of 2026 is expected to be 70% plus or minus 1% on a non-GAAP basis. • Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2026 are expected to be between $64 million and $67 million on a non-GAAP basis. • Income tax rate for the second quarter of 2026 is expected to be between 4% and 6% on a non-GAAP basis. • Net income for the second quarter of 2026 is expected to be between $0.42 and $0.46 per share on a non-GAAP basis. Non-GAAP Financial Measures: In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this earnings release makes reference to non-GAAP financial measures. With respect to the outlook for the second quarter of 2026, certain items that affect reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures for non-GAAP gross margin percentage, non-GAAP total operating expenses, non-GAAP income tax rate, and non-GAAP net income are not available on a forward-looking basis because such items cannot be reasonably calculated without unreasonable efforts due to the unpredictability of the amounts and timing of events affecting the items we exclude from non-GAAP financial measures, including certain large and/or unpredictable charges such as stock-based compensation expense; performance-based equity expense; legal expense outside the ordinary course of business; restructuring; and impairment charges. Consequently, the Company is unable to calculate the most directly comparable GAAP measure to non-GAAP gross margin percentage, non-GAAP total operating expenses, non-GAAP income tax rate, and non-GAAP net income for the Company’s second quarter 2026 quarterly guidance. Lattice announces signing of definitive agreement to acquire firmware leader, AMI Together, the combined companies will help customers move development earlier, simplify system integration and accelerate time to market. • Acquisition Financial Details: Under the terms of the definitive agreement, Lattice plans to acquire AMI on a cash-free/debt-free basis for total consideration of $1.65 billion, consisting of $1.0 billion in cash and approximately $650 million in shares of Lattice common stock, subject to customary adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. The transaction is expected to be accretive to gross margin, free cash flow, and EPS on a non-GAAP basis, and it supports Lattice’s trajectory toward $1 billion+ annual revenue run rate by Q4 2026. • Platform Firmware: Provide leading boot firmware to CPU, GPU, and MPU-silicon partners, as well as hyperscalers, server OEM and ODM customers. • Manageability and Security Solutions: Provide datacenter scale manageability solutions to board management controller silicon partners, as well as hyperscalers, server OEM and ODM customers. • Integrate with Lattice Platform: Delivers a more complete end-to-end solution that simplifies system integration and accelerates customers’ time to market. • Remain Agnostic: Lattice and AMI will remain agnostic to silicon partners and other firmware providers.

Upon closing, they expect the combined company’s complementary products to amplify customer success with an expanded set of solutions for secure management, flexible control, predictive maintenance, and accelerated time to market. “Our acquisition of AMI advances our everywhere companion chip strategy and shared vision to deliver secure management and control solutions that help customers deploy complex systems faster and with greater confidence – with expanded design choice and flexibility,” said Ford Tamer, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lattice Semiconductor. “AMI’s expertise in firmware and infrastructure for cloud and AI is a natural extension of our portfolio, deepening our role in system-level security, manageability, and control. We expect our combined capabilities to create significant value for our customers and shareholders.” Sanjoy Maity Chief Executive Officer of AMI, said, “Lattice and AMI share a long history of collaboration and a common vision for secure system design. This combination allows us to build on that foundation, extending the reach of AMI’s platform firmware and infrastructure manageability solutions while maintaining the open, silicon-agnostic, multi-vendor support our customers value. Together, we believe we can deliver more complete and integrated management and control solutions for the systems being designed today – and tomorrow.” Transaction Details Under the terms of the definitive agreement, Lattice plans to acquire AMI on a cash-free/debt-free basis for total consideration of $1.65 billion, consisting of $1.0 billion in cash and approximately $650 million in shares of Lattice common stock, subject to customary adjustments set forth in the definitive agreement.
