JUDr. Pavel Kudrhalt, CEO of STV, said: “This isn’t just about acquiring technology – it’s about building an uncompromising, end-to-end secure ecosystem for the future. Our customers demand full supply chain assurance, from manufacturing and tamper-proof transport to deployment and monitoring. With the rising threat of ‘Harvest Now, Decrypt Later’ attacks, quantum-safe defences are no longer optional. Post-Quantum’s platform doesn’t just lead the field – it allows STV to be the first-mover to redefine the very standards of digital trust in defence solutions. By embedding their technology into our portfolio, we are giving NATO allies, EU partners, and national clients the strongest possible protection for the quantum era – whether that’s safeguarding command and control chains, operating mission-critical drones, or deploying munitions in battlefield communications.”

Together we are unleashing a new wave of secure, quantum-safe solutions that protect the world’s most sensitive data against today’s adversaries and tomorrow’s quantum threats. Our modular approach to Identity, Transmission and Encryption – already proven in NATO environments – offers the fastest and most agile way to integrate into STV’s global portfolio. This is a proud moment for both companies, and a milestone for global cybersecurity.”
