Synergy Quantum, MP3 International Sign Deal to Boost Quantum Tech for Military

Delhi-based Synergy Quantum and Abu Dhabi-based MP3 International, a subsidiary of Grade One Group under EDGE Group, have signed a sales and distribution agreement to enhance military cybersecurity and quantum technology across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). 

The partnership aims to deploy military-grade quantum-secure solutions to protect critical infrastructure, defence operations, and government agencies in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman.

The agreement addresses the growing threats of cyberattacks and the potential vulnerabilities posed by quantum computing. 

With conventional encryption standards at risk of being compromised, the collaboration will introduce Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), Quantum Sensing and AI for military and defence applications.

Strategic Collaboration for Defense Security

Under the agreement, Synergy Quantum’s solutions will be distributed through MP3 International, enhancing cybersecurity for defence and critical infrastructure in the GCC. 

Jay Oberai, CEO and Founder of Synergy Quantum, stated, “The rise of advanced cyber threats and the emerging risks posed by quantum computing necessitate a forward-thinking and robust defence strategy.”

In addition, Dr. Ibrahim Al Kuwaiti of MP3 International said, “This collaboration empowers us to distribute military-grade cybersecurity products and advanced quantum technologies across the GCC.”

Military Applications of Quantum Technologies

The integration of quantum solutions into military operations is gaining traction globally. 

Air Marshal GS Bedi (Retd.), VP of business development (aerospace & satellite communications) at Synergy Quantum, noted that quantum cryptography is becoming essential for modern air forces, including those in the Middle East and India. 

Others also noted the growing emphasis on quantum capabilities. “Quantum warfare is no longer a distant concept; it is an imminent reality that advanced armies worldwide are preparing for,” stated Lt Gen Nagesh Rao (Retd.), vice president of defense business development at Synergy Quantum.

Key Benefits for Military and Defense Sectors

Quantum-secured communication enhances protection for sensitive military data, mitigating the risks of cyber threats and quantum-enabled attacks. 

AI-powered analysis further adds to this, improving decision-making by enabling real-time data processing and strategic insights. Enhanced operational resilience also allows for faster simulations and more efficient military responses in high-stakes scenarios. 

Furthermore, advanced surveillance capabilities, supported by quantum sensors, improve anomaly detection and situational awareness for defence missions. Lastly, secure global connectivity through satellite-based quantum networks ensures encrypted, long-range communication, strengthening the cybersecurity framework for military operations.
