Scope Technologies Completes Updates for Fully Encrypted, Quantum-Resilient, and Decentralized Cloud Storage
Scope Technologies Corp. (CSE: SCPE) (OTCQB: SCPCF) (FSE: VN8) recently announced the successful completion of updates for its new retail subscription model, offering full access to its industry-leading encrypted, quantum-resilient, and decentralized cloud storage solutions. Having reached this key milestone, Scope Technologies is now in closed user group testing gearing up for the official launch, which will deliver top-tier data protection solutions to individual users and small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs).
As the global demand for secure, immutable data storage continues to rise, Scope Technologies’ QSE (Quantum Security & Entropy) platform delivers enhanced protection through a combination of post-quantum encryption and decentralized storage, ensuring data is safeguarded against both current and future cyber threats. Unlike standard cloud backups, QSE’s decentralized approach ensures that data remains immutable and resistant to ransomware and denial of service attacks, among many others.
The updates offer:
True Quantum-Proof Encryption: Utilizing quantum entropy to create encryption keys that cannot be broken, even by future quantum computing power.
Immutable, Decentralized Data Storage;
Seamless Integration;
Affordable Pricing Plans.

US Air Force Reserve brigadier-general Mandy Birch has secured a $5m funding boost for her British-based quantum computing start-up as reported by October 7 SKYE NEWS.
Birch, who is also an adviser to the UK’s National Quantum Computing Centre, has secured the capital for TreQ, a manufacturing company focused on building and operating open-architecture quantum computers.
TreQ’s seed funding round is being led by Lavrock Ventures, a US-based venture firm focused on deep tech and national security. It also includes participation from the UK-based Creator Fund and firstminute capital, both of which are focused on early-stage European deep-tech companies. Silicon Valley-based Green Sands Equity also contributed to the round.
TreQ said it chose the UK as its base because of its status as a global quantum computing hub, and because of Ms Birch’s experience serving with British military personnel during counter-terrorism operations in Africa.
The company said its team had collectively built roughly a dozen quantum computers around the world.

Microsoft and Quantinuum have announced significant strides in the field of quantum computing through their a joint Azure Quantum project as reported by in TechRadar October 6.
The collaboration has expanded, resulting in the creation of 12 logical qubits from 56 physical qubits on Quantinuum’s H2 machine, showcasing a remarkable 99.8% fidelity in two-qubit operations. 
The teams demonstrated the entanglement of these logical qubits in a complex arrangement known as a Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state, which is more intricate than previous Bell state preparations. This entanglement resulted in a circuit error rate of 0.0011, significantly lower than the physical qubits’ error rate of 0.024. Such advancements not only highlight the potential for deeper quantum computations but also pave the way for fault-tolerant quantum computing, a crucial step towards realizing the full capabilities of quantum technology.
The companies say they have successfully created a new generation of highly reliable logical qubits, which are essential for achieving practical applications of quantum computing.
