Engineers have demonstrated a new communications system designed to protect telecommunications against quantum computing attacks.

The system, called " QS7001 ," was presented on Jan. 22 by representatives of the Swiss semiconductor company SEALSQ at the World Economic Forum in Davos , Switzerland .

Quantum computers are becoming increasingly powerful and could, in the future, even break encryption that is currently resistant to quantum attacks.
