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 that it is bringing its quantum technology to the rapidly expanding market of professional drones and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and professional drones.

SEALSQ has already established strategic partnerships with several leading drone manufacturers, including Parrot and AgEagle, to deliver cutting-edge security solutions for unmanned aerial systems (UAS).

  • As Europe’s leading commercial UAV provider, Parrot has already integrated SEALSQ’s secure chips into its flagship models, including the ANAFI USA, ANAFI Ai, and SKYCONTROLLER 4.

  • Similarly, AgEagle, a global provider of drone solutions for the commercial and government sectors, incorporates SEALSQ’s secure elements in its eBee VISION UAS, specifically designed for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions.

SEALSQ’s product roadmap for 2025 includes the highly anticipated launch of its Quantum-Resistant Secure Chips portfolio, featuring the QS7001 Open Platform and the QVault Trusted Platform Module (TPM). Engineering samples of the QS7001 are currently undergoing rigorous physical and logical validation as part of an extensive testing campaign.

SEALSQ’s partnerships continue to expand, and the integration of its secure elements in the partners’ products further solidifies the Company’s strong position in these fast-growing markets and the pivotal role it plays in enhancing security for defense and public safety applications. Cutting-edge drones are increasingly deployed by military forces, public agencies, and private organizations in countries such as the United States, France, or the UAE for critical operations, including infrastructure inspection, surveillance, and ground mapping.

As the global commercial drone market continues to grow (projected to reach $38 billion by 2027), SEALSQ is well prepared to meet the demand with industry-leading security solutions that comply with the highest standards, leveraging its neutral Swiss-based root of trust, PKI, provisioning services, and certified secure semiconductors.

Key differentiators of SEALSQ technology include:

  • Unique Trusted Identities: Provisioning and management of secure identities for drones and remote controls.

  • Secure Boot & Firmware Updates: Ensures only authenticated firmware is executed, safeguarding against unauthorized modifications.

  • Secure Drone-to-Ground Control Communication: Robust pairing mechanisms to protect communication between drones and ground controllers.

  • Data Protection: Advanced encryption and digital signature capabilities to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of transmitted data.

  • Industry-Standard Certifications: Compliance with FIPS 140-2 Level 3, FIPS 140-3, and CC EAL5+ certification levels, ensuring the highest security standards.
