01 Quantum Inc. and Carleton University to Collaborate with NC CIPSeR to Study Privacy and Data Risks in AI Systems

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 28, 2026) - 01 Quantum Inc. (TSXV: ONE) (OTCQB: OONEF) ("01 Quantum" or the "Company") one of the first-to-market, enterprise level cybersecurity providers for the quantum computing era, Carleton University ("Carleton") and the National Centre for Critical Infrastructure Protection, Security and Resilience ("NC CIPSeR") today announced a strategic research collaboration to study, stress test, and evaluate defensive technologies against modern artificial intelligence ("AI") systems that can unintentionally reveal sensitive information and how advanced Post-Quantum Cryptography ("PQC") can prevent it.

This partnership marks an important step in accelerating the deployment of 01 Quantum's PQC and Fully Homomorphic Encryption ("FHE") solutions. The project will simulate a realistic financial institution environment where multiple AI agents work together on tasks such as fraud detection and customer risk assessment. By exposing the inherent vulnerabilities in existing AI models, where agents frequently exchange sensitive customer data in plain text, the project is intended to provide the independent research insights required to assist enterprises in their evaluation of 01 Quantum's encrypted AI architecture.

The study focuses on "membership inference", where an outside party can statistically determine whether a particular customer record was part of a model's training data. This is a high-value vulnerability for financial institutions, government agencies, and the defense sector as it demonstrates an urgent, unaddressed requirement for the type of privacy preserving technologies 01 Quantum is bringing to market.

The first phase of the project will quantify data leakage from a standard, non-encrypted AI system. A later phase will test an encryption compatible model component to demonstrate the potential applicability of FHE as the solution to help close that privacy gap.

This initiative is positioned to capture increased attention from the shifting regulatory landscape. On June 22, 2026, President Trump issued an Executive Order (The PQC Order) directing U.S. federal agencies to accelerate preparations for quantum enabled cybersecurity threats. This order highlights the NIST approved standards 01 Quantum is positioning itself to fulfill. According to public text of the Order, the President stated that quantum computing poses a strategic risk to current widely used cryptographic systems. The Order instructed agencies to:
