BWI GmbH
As a wholly owned federal company, BWI GmbH is the IT system house of the German Armed Forces. As a link between the military and industry, BWI operates and develops the IT of the German armed forces, carries out digital transformation projects and tests and implements innovative use cases. In the latter area in particular, BWI focuses on the early and application-oriented use of new technologies. BWI’s service portfolio is clearly differentiated from research, as BWI primarily builds on research results and enables their subsequent implementation in practice. To this end, the Competence Center Quantum Enabled Technologies was founded in the Innovation & Technology division of BWI.
The declared goal is to raise awareness of quantum technologies in the BWI and Bundeswehr environment. Market and technology screenings, knowledge transfer from consulting projects and individual trials are used to derive specific recommendations for action for BWI’s service portfolio.
dacoso GmbH
dacoso is a leading managed service provider for network performance and data security in the DACH region. Since 2019 – and thus as one of the first service providers ever – we have also been dealing with quantum-safe encryption for data center connections and site networking via fiber optics.
Together with our partners, we implemented the first customer projects early on in which solutions for Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) are used. We are continuously working on further developing these solutions. For this, we are networked with universities and the development departments of manufacturers in several research projects.
dacoso has its headquarters in Langen near Frankfurt a. M. and eleven other locations in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Customers include well-known corporations, carriers, medium-sized companies, banks and insurance companies as well as authorities and institutes.

Quantum Optics Jena GmbH
Security and sovereignty of information are granted today by complex algorithm-based cryptography. The rise of quantum computing will challenge our state-of-the art, mathematical based encryption technologies. Quantum Optics Jena GmbH develops and delivers quantum key distribution (QKD) systems based on entangle photon sources to taggle quantum challenges with quantum technologies. This allows the implementation of cyber security solutions based on physical laws. Quantum Optics Jena covers the whole process chain from entangled photon sources, quantum state analysers to quantum key-generation and -management systems. We offer solutions for fiber-based networks as well as payloads and sub-systems for future QKD-satellite networks and constellations. We enable a quantum added value to our customers and partners.

Rohde & Schwarz Cybersecurity GmbH
Rohde & Schwarz Cybersecurity GmbH is an established manufacturer of security products, including in the area of network encryption. Rohde & Schwarz Cybersecurity offers network encryption devices, also for higher security and performance requirements, and is therefore intensively involved in making these devices quantum-secure. As part of research projects, a connection to (external) QKD devices was developed so that the QKD devices together with our network encryptors enable a quantum-secure transmission of user data.
The partners’ QKD devices ensure that a key is exchanged securely using quantum mechanisms, while our devices then use this to secure the user data that is actually to be transmitted. In doing so, we also pay attention to the system security of the resulting solution, so that in addition to the aspect of quantum security, classic security aspects of a secure system architecture such as robust implementations, the smallest possible attack surfaces through to aspects of a secure life cycle from production and delivery to commissioning and operation through to disposal to be fulfilled.
