QRNGs are crucial for generating genuine randomness, which is essential for thwarting quantum decryption, utilizing the unpredictable nature of quantum mechanics.

This collaboration aims to enhance data security and efficiency, offering satellites as a more secure alternative to traditional terrestrial data centers for encryption processes.

By offloading the preprocessing stage to a satellite equipped with QRNG, the project aims to significantly reduce data exchange time and computational burden in MPC protocols.

The project emphasizes trusted execution and enhanced resistance to tampering compared to terrestrial systems, making it a robust solution for secure communications.

Partisia's expertise in cryptography and MPC ensures that the solutions developed will meet the growing demand for privacy-preserving technologies driven by regulations and customer trust.

Partisia, Squareroot8, and NuSpace have formed a partnership to develop a quantum-secure communication infrastructure that leverages satellite-based Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNGs).

This memorandum of understanding sets the foundation for various secure business applications, pushing the boundaries of what is achievable in quantum communication security.

A QRNG-equipped satellite can generate 'false' random numbers that can be combined with real data, potentially cutting overall processing time by up to 80%.

Preprocessing can streamline computations, reducing the time required from nearly a week to just one hour by managing data exchange in advance.

The initiative also focuses on supporting encrypted key distribution and correlated randomness for secure Multi-Party Computation (MPC).

Utilizing satellites provides advantages such as enhanced security due to their physical inaccessibility and improved efficiency through advanced data preparation, while maintaining privacy since satellites do not access actual data.

Dr. Goh Koon Tong, Chief Technologist & Co-Founder of Squareroot8, noted that this technology not only boosts efficiency but also guarantees quantum-safe security for cryptographic computations.
