Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 10, 2026) - QSE - Quantum Secure Encryption Corp. (CSE: QSE) (OTCQB: QSEGF) (FSE: VN80) today provided a business update highlighting continued global expansion, channel growth, platform development milestones, and increasing commercial engagement for calendar year 2026.
The update reflects continued commercial traction and infrastructure development as organizations worldwide begin preparing for the transition toward post-quantum cryptographic standards.
Since November 2025, QSE has expanded its operational footprint to 13 countries, up from four markets previously, reflecting increasing global engagement around post-quantum security planning and enterprise cryptographic resilience.
The Company has also continued to expand its collaborative distribution partner ecosystem, having increased our value-added distributors (VADs) to eleven across multiple global regions, with two additional partnerships expected to finalize in the near term. These partners support enterprise deployment, regional sales activities, and local implementation of QSE's platform capabilities.
QSE has further strengthened its positioning within government procurement ecosystems through membership in CADSI (Canadian Association of Defence and Security Industries) and MISA (Municipal Information Systems Association). These memberships provide pathways for participation in Canadian public-sector and defense-related cybersecurity opportunities, including tenders involving post-quantum cryptographic readiness initiatives.
On the technology front, QSE continues to advance its platform capabilities. The Company's Quantum Preparedness Assessment (QPA) platform now includes expanded automation capabilities designed to assist organizations in identifying cryptographic dependencies and preparing for long-term migration planning. These enhancements incorporate automated analysis related to software bills of materials (SBOM), cryptographic bills of materials (CBOM), and hardware bills of materials (HBOM), helping organizations gain structured visibility into cryptographic exposure across complex environments.
QSE has also integrated its proprietary quantum-resistant entropy layer into its QAuth identity and authentication platform, strengthening key generation processes and reinforcing cryptographic resilience within identity workflows.
The Company continues to generate revenue through enterprise deployments, channel partnerships, and renewal activity from existing customers as adoption of its post-quantum security platform expands across multiple regions. Early 2026 activity reflects continued commercial engagement across several international markets.
"Over the past several months we have focused on building the foundations required for global adoption of post-quantum security solutions," said Ted Carefoot, CEO of QSE. "Our expansion into additional markets, growth of our channel ecosystem, and continued development of our platform capabilities position us to support organizations as they begin preparing for the long-term transition to post-quantum cryptographic standards."
QSE continues to align its product development and commercial expansion strategy with emerging global guidance on post-quantum migration as governments and enterprises increasingly evaluate long-term cryptographic risk exposure.
