==Technology==
Describe the underlying science and technology of the startup here. Ideally, it should provide a layman introduction of any key differentiators and/or novel or proprietary scientific breakthroughs being commercialised by the startup.
The startup uses Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) technologies to create a secure communication network. They have both terrestrial-based and space-based solutions, and can integrate both into a comprehensive system.
