VANCOUVER – Baystreet.ca News Commentary — Federal agencies are currently facing a mandatory 2030 deadline to migrate all critical systems to quantum-resistant encryption, a transition the White House estimates will cost a staggering $7.1 billion as adversaries are already employing "harvest now, decrypt later" tactics to target encrypted data[1]. Following NIST’s selection of the HQC algorithm in March 2025, enterprise adoption has predictably accelerated across banking, healthcare, and critical infrastructure sectors where sensitive data faces severe decades-long exposure risk[2]. This regulatory and threat urgency is creating immediate revenue opportunities for cybersecurity vendors with platforms already deployed, including Scope Technologies Corp. (CSE: SCPE) (OTCQB: SCPCF), Cien Corporation (NYSE: CIEN), F5, Inc. (NASDAQ: FFIV), Datadog, Inc. (NASDAQ: DDOG) and Oracle Corporation (NYSE: ORCL).
Air Force and CISA officials warn that most agencies are still just beginning their post-quantum journey, noting that cryptographic migrations historically require well over a decade to complete[3]. This severely compressed timeline is actively driving major enterprises to urgently seek quantum-safe solutions before government procurement requirements mandate post-quantum cryptography support across all federal contracts, positioning early-stage technology providers as critical infrastructure partners for both public and private sector digital transformation.
Scope Technologies Corp. (CSE: SCPE) (OTCQB: SCPCF) recently achieved Level 1 certification under the CyberSecure Canada program, to truly emerge as a foundational quantum-security-focused firm, one of the first in Canada to receive this foundational cybersecurity accreditation. This milestone validates Scope's successful implementation of mission-critical cybersecurity controls and provides the verified foundation necessary for pursuing higher-level certifications required by government agencies, defense organizations, and critical infrastructure partners.
"This certification represents another key milestone in executing both our short-term and long-term strategy," said Ted Carefoot, CEO of Scope Technologies. "By achieving CyberSecure Canada Level 1, we're validating the strength of our internal processes and controls --- laying the groundwork for higher-level certifications as we continue toward full post-quantum readiness. It's an important foundational step in establishing Scope as a trusted leader in PQS (Post-Quantum Security) and building the confidence our clients and partners expect."
The CyberSecure Canada Level 1 certification is administered by Cyber Security Canada and recognized by the Standards Council of Canada. The certification confirms that Scope has successfully implemented and verified robust, foundational cybersecurity controls, including risk management, data protection, access control, employee training, and incident response readiness.
As an active member of the Canadian Association of Defence and Security Industries (CADSI), Scope Technologies is leveraging this achievement to align with the standards mandatory for key collaboration across the national security and defense ecosystems. The company is now progressing toward Level 2 certification—a mandatory prerequisite to compete for high-value government and defense-related engagements.
Beyond compliance, this certification reinforces Scope's broader mission to dictate the new standard of trust and resilience in cybersecurity by integrating quantum-resistant encryption, immutable storage, and verified operational controls. Scope's technologies form the foundational infrastructure that enables organizations to secure their data both now and into the quantum era.
This milestone follows Scope's strategic acquisition of Cloud Codes, an India-based SSO and cloud platform that immediately added 270 business clients and 88,000 active end-users to its quantum-secure ecosystem. The acquisition delivered immediate revenue accretion with Cloud Codes generating CAD $673,012 in annual revenues for 2025 and CAD $228,131 in net income, demonstrating profitable operations that strengthen Scope's financial foundation.
Under transaction terms, Scope paid CAD $100,000 in cash and issued 4,200,000 common shares at $0.40 per share, bringing total consideration to CAD $1,780,000. The deal provided Scope with proprietary distributed storage middleware that immediately becomes the core technological backbone for QSE's decentralized cloud infrastructure, creating competitive advantages as traditional SSO vendors are now scrambling to address accelerating post-quantum threats.
Market positioning appears compelling as the global SSO market is projected to exceed US$6 billion by 2030, while post-quantum cryptography is expected to reach US$17.7 billion over the same timeframe, positioning Scope at the intersection of two explosive growth markets.
Earlier this year, the company secured expansion capital through a C$2.8 million financing round backed by strategic investor First Majestic Silver Corp. With planned vertical ownership of quantum-secure infrastructure, identity lifecycle management, and now national-grade cybersecurity certification, Scope Technologies establishes itself as a core enterprise delivering comprehensive post-quantum authentication at scale as the industry prepares for the quantum transition.

Ciena Corporation (NYSE: CIEN) recently collaborated with REDIMadrid on the optical network foundation for its End-to-End Quantum Secure Data Transport Project, demonstrating the ability to use Quantum Key Distribution technology over existing optical fiber networks. The project leverages Ciena's 6500 photonic line system, which allows a quantum channel to operate seamlessly alongside existing Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing traffic on the same fiber, eliminating the need for dedicated fiber infrastructure.
"This collaboration demonstrates how we can help our customers stay ahead of the threats posed by quantum computing to today's cryptography; whether it's using our proven photonic line systems to eliminate the need for additional fiber to carry the quantum channel, or by using our Waveserver 5 optical encryption solutions that are designed to interwork with any QKD system and to support Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms," said Paulina Gomez, Senior Product Marketing Advisor of Ciena.
This integration enables REDIMadrid to lay the groundwork for a communication architecture that meets the evolving needs of the research and academic community in Madrid. Ciena is collaborating with Axians, a technology partner specialized in digital and network infrastructures, to ensure seamless implementation and integration for the project.
