Telecom towers are the most widespread infrastructure in any nation — and they could become its first line of defence. Discover how turning 18,000 cell sites into a distributed “digital wall” could protect against jamming, cyber-attacks, and drone incursions.

The convergence of quantum, generative, and sovereign AI will redefine competitiveness — and governance frameworks must catch up

Quantum computing could render today’s digital security obsolete. Boards and executives must act now to prepare networks with quantum-safe encryption, ensuring resilience before the threat becomes unmanageable.

Introduction: From Utility to Critical Asset For years, data centres were discussed in terms of real estate, energy efficiency, or cloud competition. That framing is now obsolete. In Q4 2025, governments are treating data centres as strategic infrastructure , akin to oil fields or power grids. 1. OpenAI’s Provocative Comparison OpenAI’s recent warning—that data centres must be guarded like oil rigs —has been echoed by policymakers. Why? Compute is the fuel for AI arms races.

Semiconductors are the new oil—the critical asset where supply chain weakness translates into national vulnerability.

The tariff war is not only reshaping trade - it’s redefining where digital transformation capital is deployed.

Europe’s connectivity hinges on a dense mesh of short Baltic/North Sea cables and a handful of deep-water trunks. Coordinated, deniable cuts at 3–6 points would spike latency into Frankfurt/London, push Nordic traffic onto narrower southern routes, and brown-out offshore and island backhaul. Layer concurrent GNSS jamming and satcom ground-segment attacks, and you have a classic hybrid play. This briefing translates that risk into clear operator actions you can take now.

Introduction: When Space and Quantum Collide Quantum computing promises to revolutionise science and industry—but it also threatens to...

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) power aviation, shipping, telecoms, and finance. But jamming, spoofing, and geopolitical conflict expose dangerous vulnerabilities. This blog explores how the US, Europe, and the Middle East are rethinking resilience through terrestrial backups like eLORAN and advanced timing systems.

Quantum risks are no longer a distant threat—they’re a present-day boardroom priority. As ETSI Quantum-Safe Cryptography standards reshape the legal, insurance, and audit landscape, boards must act decisively to safeguard compliance, protect reputation, and secure corporate resilience. This article explores the legal liabilities of delay, the impact on insurance and audits, the reputational fallout of cryptographic compromise, and the proactive steps boards can take to become

As smart cities and IoT networks expand, the risk of quantum-enabled cyberattacks grows. ETSI’s Quantum-Safe Cryptography standards and lightweight post-quantum solutions offer the protection these infrastructures need—without sacrificing performance. This article explores QSC applications in smart cities, connected vehicles, and AI security, while outlining strategies for policy alignment and technology readiness that will future-proof critical systems against emerging quant

Preparing for quantum threats means more than awareness—it requires execution. This guide takes organisations from ETSI’s quantum-safe standards to hands-on migration, covering vendor selection, procurement checklists, crypto-agility, and hybrid transition models. It also outlines practical steps for running crypto discovery and managing large network transitions, ensuring security, compliance, and operational continuity in the post-quantum era.

As quantum computing advances, ETSI’s new quantum-safe cryptography standards—via ETSI TC CYBER QSC and the GS QSC series—are setting the benchmark for secure communications in a post-quantum world. This article explains their features, compares ETSI’s approach with NIST and ISO, and outlines practical strategies for organisations to implement PQC, adapt cybersecurity policies, and prepare for emerging quantum threats.

Quantum computing could break today’s mobile network encryption within a decade—leaving critical communications exposed. This article examines the risks, the tight PQC adoption timeline, and the steps operators must take now: assessing vulnerabilities, updating infrastructure, engaging regulators, and investing in R&D. With coordinated action, the industry can secure mobile communications for the quantum era.

Quantum computing could undermine the encryption that keeps wireless communications safe—from base stations to smartphones. This article examines the vulnerabilities in radio access networks, the risks to base stations, and the strategies needed to achieve quantum resilience, including quantum key distribution, post-quantum cryptography, and hybrid approaches that combine classical and quantum security.

Quantum computing could soon render current mobile network encryption obsolete, putting subscriber data and trust at risk. This article outlines the legal, reputational, and operational dangers of delaying action, and provides a strategic roadmap for MNOs to assess vulnerabilities, adopt quantum-safe cryptography, upgrade infrastructure, and communicate their commitment to security in the post-quantum era.

Quantum computing could render current SIM card encryption obsolete. This article examines how ETSI, GSMA, and 3GPP are developing post-quantum cryptographic standards to safeguard mobile networks, enhance SIM security, and prepare the telecom industry for a quantum-ready future.

Quantum computing could undermine today’s messaging security within years. This article explains why telcos must deploy quantum-safe messaging by 2026, exploring the threats, enabling technologies like QKD, commercial benefits, implementation challenges, and the collaborative efforts needed to prepare for the quantum future.

Quantum computing could break the encryption protecting civil mobile networks within years. This article explains the vulnerabilities in current systems, the cost of inaction, and how adopting post-quantum cryptography can safeguard communications, future-proof infrastructure, and maintain user trust.

Now, European governments are recognising a sobering truth: GNSS denial is not just a wartime contingency—it’s a peacetime probability. Jamming and spoofing by Russia, primarily from Kaliningrad, Crimea, and Belarus, are now routine across civil airspace and digital infrastructure zones.
