Prepare forquantum.Protect against it.
Quantum readiness in two parts: access to quantum computing for optimisation and simulation experiments, and migration to quantum-safe cryptography before it is urgent.
Why quantum readiness matters now
Quantum computing is an emerging capability for hard optimisation problems, and a near-term threat to today’s encryption. Both call for preparation now, not panic later.
Access is possible
Cloud quantum processors and simulators let teams experiment today.
Hard problems exist
Routing, scheduling and portfolio problems scale badly on classical machines.
Encryption is at risk
Data captured today can be decrypted later by future quantum machines.
Migration takes years
Inventories, standards and vendor updates need a multi-year plan.
The answer: experiment with quantum, migrate to quantum-safe, positioned as emerging, planned with discipline.

Quantum, readiness in two tracks
We run scoped quantum experiments on real problems through cloud access, and we plan and execute the migration of your cryptography to quantum-safe standards.
Quantum computing access
Hybrid quantum-classical experiments on optimisation and simulation problems.
Quantum-safe cryptography
Crypto inventory, risk assessment and migration to post-quantum algorithms.
Capability building
Training, use-case scouting and partnerships with quantum programmes.
Building blocks of a quantum-readiness programme
Six components across computing and security tracks.
Quantum access
Cloud quantum processors, simulators and annealers through partner programmes.
Hybrid optimisation
Quantum-inspired and hybrid solvers for routing, scheduling and allocation.
Experiment framework
Scoped problems, benchmarks against classical and honest reporting.
Cryptographic inventory
Where encryption is used: devices, networks, data, certificates.
Post-quantum migration
Crypto-agile architecture and staged algorithm migration.
Skills & partnerships
Training and access to national and international quantum programmes.
How it works: two tracks, one programme
Experiments inform where quantum helps; the security track protects what matters now.

Where quantum readiness earns its keep
Eight use cases, four experiments, four protections.
Fleet & port routing
Hybrid solvers on vehicle and yard scheduling problems.
Crowd-flow scheduling
Bus rotation and gate timing as optimisation experiments.
Grid optimisation
Unit commitment and dispatch on hybrid quantum solvers.
Materials & simulation
Chemistry and materials experiments with research partners.
Crypto inventory
Every certificate, key and algorithm across devices and systems.
Long-lived device security
Meters, cameras and controllers that must stay secure for a decade.
Data with long value
Records that must stay confidential beyond the quantum horizon.
Network migration
VPNs, PKI and TLS moved to post-quantum algorithms.
Where it creates value across Saudi sectors
Experiments where problems are hardest; protection where data lives longest.
Industry & factories
Scheduling experiments; long-lived OT device cryptography.
Airports
Gate and stand optimisation experiments; passenger-data protection.
Hajj & crowd mobility
Bus-rotation experiments; season data protection.
Fleet & logistics
Routing experiments; telematics key migration.
Utilities & energy
Dispatch experiments; smart-meter crypto for a decade.
Retail & FMCG
Replenishment experiments; payment-estate migration.
Start with a crypto inventory and one scoped experiment, both fit in a quarter.
A year of quantum readiness
Illustrative sequence from a transport operator.
inventory and scope
Cryptography across vehicles, networks and data is inventoried; a scheduling problem is scoped.
experiment
A hybrid solver runs the problem through quantum cloud access; results are benchmarked honestly.
migration plan
Crypto-agile architecture agreed; long-lived devices prioritised for post-quantum updates.
report
The board sees what quantum can do today, what it cannot yet, and the migration schedule.
Quantum is positioned as emerging, honest benchmarks, disciplined migration.
Illustrative scenario, not a case study.
