SAIC acquires quantum encryption firm
US technology services company SAIC has acquired a quantum encryption firm, according to a report from Virginia Business. The deal brings quantum-safe cryptography capabilities into SAIC's portfolio, positioning it for growing demand from government and defense clients seeking to protect sensitive data against future quantum computing threats. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed in the initial report.
Why now: Quantum computing's threat to current encryption is driving a wave of acquisitions as defense contractors race to add post-quantum security capabilities.
