Quantum eMotion Strengthens Cybersecurity Strategy with SecureKey Platform Acquisition

Quantum eMotion Corp. has entered into an agreement to acquire all shares of SKV Technology Inc., gaining control of the SecureKey platform and bolstering its position in the rapidly evolving field of quantum-based cybersecurity. The acquisition combines Quantum eMotion’s Sentry-Q orchestration layer with SecureKey’s high-assurance cryptographic software, creating what the company describes as a full-stack, quantum-resilient cybersecurity architecture extending from cloud to chip. This integrated system is designed to deliver end-to-end quantum-safe security and address the critical issue of key exposure, which industry research identifies as the primary cause of breaches. “Sentry-Q orchestrates quantum-grade entropy and security policy at the cloud layer. SecureKey enforces that trust at the execution boundary through hardened cryptographic software integrated with hardware environments,” said Dr. Francis Bellido, CEO of Quantum eMotion, explaining the synergy between the two platforms. Sentry-Q and SecureKey Integration Delivers Full-Stack Quantum Resilience A novel cybersecurity architecture promises to shield data from future quantum computer attacks by extending protection to the chip level. Quantum eMotion Corp. This integration isn’t simply layering defenses; it’s a fundamental shift in how cryptographic keys are handled, addressing a critical vulnerability that currently plagues digital security. Industry research consistently points to stolen keys and credentials as the primary cause of breaches, and this new architecture aims to eliminate that risk through a “memory-less” cryptographic design. The core of this approach lies in the synergy between Sentry-Q and SecureKey. QeM’s Sentry-Q platform generates quantum random number generator (QRNG)-based entropy and master keys, while also orchestrating secure communication protocols, including authentication, key rotation, and post-quantum ciphersuites. SecureKey then takes this foundation and implements it directly on devices, protecting keys through hardened software controls integrated with hardware boundaries. This prevents key extraction and tampering, offering a level of security traditionally reserved for dedicated hardware security modules. As Dr. The implications of this technology extend beyond simply resisting quantum decryption algorithms. The acquisition of SKV and its SecureKey platform expands Quantum eMotion’s addressable market, offering deployable, revenue-ready cryptographic enforcement software alongside its existing QRNG and entropy-based foundation. The combined system is designed to be immediately applicable across several critical sectors, including AI data centers, energy systems, defense, industrial IoT, blockchain, and critical infrastructure. Jason Thomas, founder of SKV and Jet Lab, highlights the unique power of this integration: “By integrating SecureKey with QeM’s QRNG-driven Sentry-Q platform, we can deliver a uniquely powerful architecture that combines quantum-grade entropy with execution-bound enforcement.” The global market for critical infrastructure and cloud security currently exceeds US$150 billion, according to Gartner, and is expected to accelerate due to modernization initiatives, cloud adoption, and increasing regulatory requirements for quantum readiness. SecureKey Platform Eliminates Key Exposure with Memory-less Cryptography The escalating threat of cyber breaches has long been fueled by a single, persistent vulnerability: compromised encryption keys. Traditional cryptographic systems rely on storing these keys somewhere – in hardware security modules, trusted platform modules, or even in software-protected memory – creating a target for attackers. However, a newly integrated platform from Quantum eMotion Corp. aims to fundamentally alter this paradigm by eliminating persistent key storage altogether. Through the acquisition of SKV Technology Inc. This approach, combined with QeM’s existing Sentry-Q platform, establishes a full-stack, quantum-resilient cybersecurity architecture spanning cloud, network, endpoint, and chip-level security. This isn’t merely an additive security layer; it’s a shift toward a system where keys are generated and used within a fleeting operational window, leaving no lasting digital footprint. “SecureKey was built to eliminate persistent key exposure and to bring hardware-grade protection into deployable software environments,” explained Mr. The synergy between the two platforms is central to this advancement. Dr. Together, Sentry-Q + SecureKey deliver full-stack quantum-resilient security — from QRNG-generated entropy to endpoint enforcement — dramatically reducing key exposure risks while accelerating post-quantum migration.” Beyond eliminating key storage, the SecureKey platform offers TLS/IPsec/VPN/session offload and acceleration, establishing end-to-end secure tunnels at the edge, within devices, system-on-chips (SoCs), network interface controllers (NICs), and controllers. The acquisition provides QeM with production-ready technologies, including a deployable cryptographic library, VPN and firewall implementations, and drop-in integrations compatible with existing enterprise and cloud platforms.

This strategic purchase isn’t merely an expansion of resources; it’s a calculated integration of technologies designed to address the escalating threat landscape, particularly the looming arrival of quantum computing capable of breaking current encryption standards. The acquisition centers on SecureKey, a cryptographic software platform developed by Jet Lab Technologies Inc. and now held by SKV. This platform is designed to deliver robust security across cloud, network, and embedded systems, functioning as a crucial enforcement layer for QeM’s Sentry-Q orchestration platform. This synergy is central to QeM’s vision, as articulated by Dr. A key differentiator of the acquired technology is a patent-pending “memory-less” cryptographic architecture, engineered to eliminate persistent key storage—a vulnerability identified as the primary cause of many cybersecurity breaches. The deal, structured as an expedited acquisition under TSX Venture Exchange policies, involves milestone-based earn-out payments of up to C$7,000,000 and potential royalties of up to $15,000,000, contingent on sales performance of products incorporating the SecureKey technology over a five-year term. Closing is anticipated on or about March 2, 2026, pending final TSXV acceptance.
