The testbed will adhere to NIST PQC standards, supporting Open RAN architectures and quantum-hardened encryption.

The facility's Quantum Cybersecurity Sandbox, focused on Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) over 5G, aims to foster next-generation digital security solutions.

The 7-layer stack features quantum RNG chips, secure operating systems, PQC encryptors, secure communication applications, hardened cloud nodes, and command dashboards with quantum AI analytics.

The Quantum Cybersecurity Sandbox will integrate into The Garage's innovation ecosystem, facilitating national pilot programs in sectors such as defense, government, telecommunications, and finance.

On August 7, 2025, Synergy Quantum launched Saudi Arabia's first full-stack Quantum Cybersecurity facility at The Garage, the largest deep-tech innovation hub in the Middle East.

This initiative is part of the Kingdom's digital transformation agenda and is supported by the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT) as well as the Saudi Federation for Cybersecurity, Programming and Drones.

Leadership from Synergy Quantum and MCIT highlighted the significance of this collaboration in safeguarding critical infrastructure and advancing quantum-secure communications across various sectors.

Synergy Quantum's proprietary QBoM™ platform will simulate full-stack quantum communication, integrating quantum-safe chips and quantum AI analytics.

Key capabilities of the testbed include Post-Quantum Secure 5G+ Infrastructure, full-stack quantum communication simulation, and a comprehensive 7-layer quantum-secure digital stack.

MCIT's Director of Technology Development, Hani B. AlHemsi, remarked that this collaboration marks a significant milestone in Saudi Arabia's journey towards a Quantum Secure world.

The facility aims to enhance the Kingdom's technological sovereignty and resilience while supporting national cybersecurity and digital economy objectives.

This initiative underscores Saudi Arabia's commitment to fostering deep-tech innovation and protecting critical infrastructure from emerging threats.
