Recently, QuantumCTek and NARI Group Corporation held the "Product Release Conference for Quantum Cryptography Designed for Electric Power", introducing the first integrated quantum cryptography equipment designated for electric power—NetKeeper-2000Q. This integrated quantum cryptography machine is based on the quantum key technology and combines the commercial cryptography algorithm and cryptography algorithm for electric power of the State Cryptography Administration to provide end-to-end information security protection for the real-time data transmission in the power industry, thus effectively eliminated the concern that the encryption way of existing products based on mathematical algorithms might be broken. In addition, it has dramatically improved the security of the products by reasonably increasing the update frequency of the keys.

NARI Group Corporation is a market leader of China's extra-high voltage and smart grid, and QuantumCTek is a leading enterprise in practical quantum communication technology. Based on each other's core advantages and the demand for the security of information communication in the power industry, in recent years, the two parties have cooperated closely, together promoted the application and research of quantum communication in the power industry and have taken the lead in the world. In August 2016, QuantumCTek and NARI Group Corporation successfully developed their first cooperative achievement—the VPN gateway based on a quantum scheme for authentication. This time, the two enterprises together launched the integrated quantum cryptography machine, a recent cooperative achievement of the two enterprises. It is an important periodical achievement of both enterprises collaborative innovation, and has laid essential foundation for developing miniature and customized security products, optical switching equipment and the management system.

Next, QuantumCTek will carry out deep cooperation with NARI Group Corporation. On the basis of the existing products, they will achieve the diversification of product type and the modularization of functions, improve the functions and performance of products to meet the new needs of electric power applications in different scenarios and more business fields, and set regulations on relevant standards of power quantum security communication.
