LuxQuanta Demonstrates Quantum-Safe Solutions Between Data Centers and AWS
Barcelona, July 2nd, 2025 – LuxQuanta, in collaboration with Juniper Networks, lyntia, and Merqury Cybersecurity, announces the successful demonstration of a quantum-secure communication link connecting on-premises data centers with Amazon Web Services (AWS). This cross-industry effort is part of a broader initiative to build future-proof network infrastructure, leveraging quantum technologies to defend critical data transmissions against the threat of quantum-computer cyberattacks.
The demonstration integrates LuxQuanta’s Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution (CV-QKD) systems - NOVA LQ® - Juniper’s AI-Native security solutions, lyntia’s backbone fiber infrastructure, and Merqury’s post-quantum key management technology. Overall, proving that secure, quantum-resistant cloud connectivity is not only feasible but deployable today.
“Juniper is committed to securing data center-to-cloud environments against emerging threats,” said Raj Yavatkar, CTO of Juniper Networks. “Through this strategic partnership, AWS users gain access to next-generation quantum technologies that enhance the robustness and resilience of their networks.”
“Our joint initiative with AWS pushes the frontier of quantum communications,” added Sebastián Etcheverry, CTO and Co-founder of LuxQuanta. “We are laying the foundation for scalable and resilient quantum cybersecurity, making quantum-secure cloud services a reality.”
A New Quantum-Safe Network Architecture
Governments around the world, including the U.S., UK, Germany, and EU institutions, have formally recognized data centers as critical national infrastructure. As quantum computing advances, so too does the urgency to deploy quantum-resistant communication solutions capable of protecting sensitive data well into the future.
The demo, conducted at the AWS Direct Connect facility in Madrid, showcases a point-to-multipoint quantum-secure network. Until now, QKD deployments were limited to isolated links between individual sender-receiver pairs. This latest demonstration evidences that it is now possible to distribute quantum keys from a single transmitter to multiple independent receivers thanks to LuxQuanta’s comercial CV-QKD System NOVA LQ®, significantly reducing infrastructure costs and enabling scalable quantum security.
Real-World Integration and Operational Readiness
The setup featured dynamic routing over lyntia’s metropolitan optical network, staging real traffic from management and monitoring systems. LuxQuanta’s QKD modules seamlessly integrated with Juniper’s encryption solutions, securing optical links across the network. Meanwhile, Merqury Cybersecurity deployed post-quantum cryptographic safeguards to reinforce cloud-side connections, forming a robust, multi-layered security model.“Access to advanced quantum security capabilities enables us to protect customer data with unmatched confidence,” stated Eduardo Duato, CTO and Innovation Lead at lyntia. “This collaboration demonstrates our ability to implement highly resilient encryption systems across live infrastructure.”
Dr. Noel Farrugia, CTO at Merqury Cybersecurity, added: “This is a major milestone in the evolution of quantum telecom integration. We’ve translated theoretical security concepts into working infrastructure—real-world, real-time, and future-ready.”
