SEALSQ and WISeSat to Launch 100-Satellite Quantum Cloud with 99.9% SLA
SEALSQ and WISeSat will deploy a 100-satellite Quantum Spatial Orbital Cloud offering quantum key distribution, quantum random number generation and post-quantum identity services under a 99.9% uptime SLA. WISeSat provides orbital infrastructure while SEALSQ operates the cloud layer via a multi-year subscription model, with full capability by 2033.
1. Project Overview
SEALSQ has entered a strategic partnership with WISeSat to develop the first commercial Quantum Spatial Orbital Cloud (QSOC). The programme plans incremental deployment of a 100-satellite constellation to deliver quantum key distribution (QKD), quantum random number generation (QRNG) and post-quantum identity services to enterprises, governments and defence agencies.
2. Infrastructure and Cloud Roles
WISeSat will design, manufacture, launch and operate the satellite constellation and ground segment, assuming all technical, regulatory and operational risks. SEALSQ will purchase dedicated capacity under a multi-year agreement at defined performance levels and run the QSOC cloud platform, controlling payloads, software, service catalogue and customer relationships.
3. Commercial Model and Timeline
Under a co-location model, WISeSat provides orbital infrastructure while SEALSQ monetizes cloud services via subscriptions backed by a 99.9% uptime service-level agreement. Satellites are being deployed from 2024, targeting full operational capability by 2033, enabling SEALSQ to scale revenues without bearing constellation capital costs.
