Welcome to the latest edition of the Quantum Era Security Times, brought to you by ID Quantique, the world leader in quantum-safe cryptography solutions. We begin 2019 with the announcement of a major breakthrough led by ID Quantique and partners in the field of quantum information technology standards. We are also excited to announce that, today, telecoms giant Deutsche Telekom announced an investment in IDQ. This follows the signing of a strategic cross-investment agreement between Deutsche Telekom and fellow investor SK Telecom in October 2018. We then run through the highlights of our 2019 Winter School, where we were pleased to welcome over 30 delegates, from 12 countries, for six fantastic days of quantum learning. We conclude by inviting you to two important events: Mobile World Congress 19, which takes place in Barcelona from 25-28 February, and the latest RSA Conference in San Francisco from 04-08 March.
