Information Security
Quantum-enhanced data encryption takes cryptography to the next level, offering additional protection for the communication infrastructure of critical service providers.

Quantum-enhanced data encryption
QMill is developing a new quantum-enhanced data encryption method that is enabled by local or cloud quantum computers. The method is fundamentally harder to break than such classical methods. Once completed, the method is designed to protect communications against attacks carried out using either classical or quantum resources. The solutions will be available directly from us and through our channel partners.
Demo with Telia: encryption in mobile networks
QMill and Telia, a leading telecom operator in the Nordic and Baltic countries, have developed quantum-enhanced message encryption for mobile networks. The method has also been demonstrated to the Finnish Defense Forces, as was announced in May, 2026.
TELIA: ”The security of our networks is becoming more crucial, especially for our mission-critical customers. In this first demonstration with QMill we focused on the most critical part of our network, but this method could be used more widely and, in the long-term, it could potentially establish a new standard for encrypted communications.”
Additional layer of security – anticipating future needs
Today, post-quantum cryptography (PQC), which is based on classical computing, is the prevailing approach for future cryptographic solutions designed to withstand attacks from quantum computers. PQC has moved from theory to practical implementation following the approval of the first standards less than two years ago.
QMILL CEO: "We will continue developing our quantum-enhanced security method with the objective of making it available as a standalone product, while also using it to complement other encryption methods by adding an additional layer of security."
QMill’s new quantum-enhanced data encryption works as a standalone product or provides an additional layer of security e.g. on top of PQC. It is protecting communications against attacks that use either classical or quantum resources.
