SEALSQ鈥檚 Strategic Investment in WISeSat Propels Satellite Constellation Growth and Accelerates Commercialization of Post-Quantum Space Technology

Geneva, Switzerland, July 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) ("SEALSQ" or "Company"), a company that focuses on developing and selling Semiconductors, PKI, and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, today announced a strategic investment in聽WISeSat.Space, the Swiss satellite technology venture of its parent company, WISeKey International Holding Ltd (鈥淲ISeKey鈥�) (SIX: WIHN, NASDAQ: WKEY), a leading global cybersecurity, blockchain, and IoT company. This investment aims to fuel the expansion of WISeSat鈥檚 Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellation and fast-track the commercialization of its groundbreaking post-quantum-ready space technology.

The announcement follows the signing of a strategic partnership between WISeSat.Space and EnduroSat, the leading Bulgarian space technology firm, further expanding WISeSat's global collaboration network. This partnership complements prior alliances with FOSSA Systems (Spain), PLD Space (Spain), Astrocast (Switzerland), Skyroot Aerospace (India), and SpaceX (USA), demonstrating WISeSat.Space鈥檚 commitment to international cooperation in building a secure space communications infrastructure.

WISeSat.Space鈥檚 post-quantum-enabled satellite constellation is now testing advanced applications, including device-to-device post-quantum communication. The next major milestone will allow mobile phones to directly connect to the satellite constellation 鈥� anytime, anywhere 鈥� a capability that can already be previewed in real time via the WISeSat.Space interactive world map:

Currently comprising of 21 LEO satellites, the WISeSat.Space constellation orbits Earth at altitudes between 500鈥�600 km, completing a full orbit in approximately 90 minutes at speeds of 7.8 km/s (鈮�17,500 mph). The constellation provides more than 10 daily data transmission windows, ensuring near-global coverage and making it a foundational layer for secure and resilient global communications. This infrastructure supports WISeSat.Space鈥檚 bold vision, laying the groundwork for space-to-space and space-to-ground quantum resistant communication systems

The growing convergence of quantum technology and space infrastructure is drawing attention from many investors. SEALSQ鈥檚 investment in WISeSat.Space follows a wave of quantum-focused transactions in the sector, including IONQ鈥檚 acquisition of Capella Space, as companies race to secure the future of space communications.

鈥淪ecuring satellite communications is a complex challenge, especially for long-duration devices with limited physical access,鈥� said Carlos Moreira, CEO of SEALSQ. 鈥淭raditional cryptographic methods are no longer sustainable in the age of quantum computing. Our strategy of integrating post-quantum algorithms and implementing secure mechanisms in hardware, is designed to anticipate and address these emerging threats. SEALSQ鈥檚 support accelerates our ability to deliver this future-ready solution.鈥�

By integrating Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) into both the software and hardware layers of its satellites, WISeSat.Space ensures long-term, tamper-resistant security across its entire infrastructure.

SEALSQ-developed secure elements are embedded directly into the onboard satellite systems, allowing:

• Cryptographic separation: PQC processes are isolated from core control systems, minimizing the attack surface.
• Hardware-based key storage: Quantum-resistant keys are generated, stored, and managed in tamper-proof secure hardware.
• Resilient Over-the-Air (OTA) updates: Firmware, certificates, and keys can be updated securely during the satellite鈥檚 lifecycle.
• Post-Quantum Secure Boot and Communication: Every signal, from launch to ground station to end-user device, is cryptographically signed using NIST-recommended post-quantum algorithms like CRYSTALS-Kyber.

This integrated security architecture enables trusted communication between satellites, mobile devices, and terrestrial infrastructures, providing a robust foundation for governments, enterprises, and defense systems seeking long-term protection against quantum-era threats.
