Global Framework
Alignment

QRCL advances the UN 2030 Agenda, EU Digital Decade, EU Space Programme, and NATO resilience — delivering quantum-safe assurance where it matters most.

Global Framework Alignment

Built for Resilience & Trust

Five UN Sustainable Development Goals and four global frameworks directly addressed by QRCL’s post-quantum verification infrastructure.

SDG 9
Industry, Innovation & Infrastructure

QRCL provides quantum-resistant infrastructure for the critical industries that cannot fail.

  • Post-quantum cryptographic infrastructure for aviation, space, finance, and energy sectors
  • Significantly more energy-efficient than legacy proof-of-work verification approaches
  • Low-power ARM deployment — accessible to operators of all sizes
  • Enables NIS2 and DORA compliance for critical infrastructure operators across the EU
SDG 11
Sustainable Cities & Communities

QRCL protects urban airspace — making city drone operations verified, safe, and trustworthy.

  • Cryptographic integrity verification for urban drone operations and medical delivery flights
  • Enables safe beyond-visual-line-of-sight operations over populated areas under EU U-space rules
  • Protects city airspace from navigation signal manipulation
SDG 13
Climate Action

QRCL's verification approach is significantly more energy-efficient than existing alternatives, and enables verifiable climate data chains from space.

  • verification uses a fraction of the energy of proof-of-work systems
  • Runs on low-power ARM hardware — suitable for renewable-powered remote infrastructure
  • Enables tamper-proof satellite climate data chains — verified carbon monitoring records
SDG 16
Peace, Justice & Strong Institutions

QRCL makes critical infrastructure decisions tamper-proof and non-repudiable — permanently.

  • Cryptographic audit log — every verification decision permanently verifiable
  • Post-quantum signatures ensure audit records remain secure against future computing advances
  • Aligned with UN Pact for the Future (2024): critical infrastructure protection mandate
SDG 17
Partnerships for the Goals

QRCL is designed as shared infrastructure — one verification layer across EU institutions and member states without vendor lock-in.

  • Open standards: NIST FIPS 203/204/205, CCSDS, NIS2, DORA
  • ESA BIC incubation: formal partnership with the European Space Agency
  • Deployable across EU member states without proprietary lock-in
United Nations · Global Frameworks

UN Global
Frameworks & Compacts

Four UN frameworks governing digital security, space, connectivity, and disaster resilience.

UN Global Digital Compact · 2024
Secure Digital Infrastructure & AI Accountability

QRCL provides the cryptographic foundation for accountable, tamper-proof decision-making in safety-critical AI and automated systems.

  • Every verification decision cryptographically signed and permanently verifiable — AI decisions become auditable
  • Post-quantum security ensures digital infrastructure remains trusted as computing advances
UN Outer Space Treaty (1967) · Moon Agreement
Peaceful Use of Outer Space

QRCL's space verification layers provide the cryptographic evidence chains needed to prove compliance with peaceful-use obligations.

  • Quantum-resistant signed audit logs for cislunar and deep-space operations
  • Conjunction avoidance data chains support responsible debris management
ITU Connect 2030 Agenda
Connectivity & Cybersecurity for All Nations

QRCL's infrastructure is designed for low-power ARM hardware and open standards — bringing quantum-safe security to operators in any nation.

  • Open standards (NIST FIPS 203/204/205) ensure no proprietary lock-in for any country
  • GNSS integrity protection benefits all aviation operators globally
Sendai Framework · 2015–2030
Resilient Critical Infrastructure

QRCL's cryptographic verification infrastructure

  • Maintains aviation safety even under simultaneous node failures or interference
  • No single point of failure — critical decisions require quorum, not a central authority
European Union · Digital Decade · Green Deal · Space

EU Strategic
Goals & Directives

Seven EU strategic frameworks — each directly relevant to QRCL's technology and deployment context.

EU Digital Decade 2030
Secure & Resilient Digital Infrastructure

QRCL delivers quantum-safe verification for aviation and space — available now.

  • NIS2 Directive — quantum-resistant audit logs for critical infrastructure operators
  • DORA — financial sector digital operational resilience via post-quantum signing
  • ENISA post-quantum cryptography guidelines — QRCL implements NIST FIPS 203/204/205
EU Space Programme · Decision (EU) 2021/698
Galileo · EU SST · EUSPA · NAVISP

QRCL extends Galileo OSNMA authentication with cryptographic verification infrastructure

  • Galileo OSNMA (operational July 2025) — verification layer over authentication verdicts
  • EU SST — tamper-proof post-quantum chains for collision avoidance events
  • NAVISP Element 2 — ESA permanently open call for PNT security products
European Green Deal
Sustainable Digital Transformation

QRCL's verification protocol consumes significantly less energy than legacy alternatives.

  • Energy-efficient verification — far below legacy proof-of-work systems
  • Low-power ARM deployment compatible with renewable-powered edge infrastructure
EU AI Act · Regulation (EU) 2024/1689
Verifiable AI in Safety-Critical Contexts

QRCL provides the cryptographic audit log that makes AI decisions non-repudiable under the AI Act.

  • Every AI-assisted decision in aviation or drone operations cryptographically signed and auditable
  • Tamper-proof evidence log satisfies AI Act requirements for high-risk system logging
EU Critical Entities Resilience Directive (CER)
Resilience of Critical Infrastructure Operators

The CER Directive covers aviation, energy, rail, water, and digital infrastructure — all sectors where QRCL provides quantum-resistant cryptographic verification.

  • Companion to NIS2 — QRCL addresses both the cyber (NIS2) and physical resilience (CER) layers
Tallinn Manual 3.0
International Law on Cyber Operations · Estonia

QRCL is an Estonian company providing exactly the infrastructure the Tallinn Manual framework seeks to protect.

  • Post-quantum cryptography defends against state-level cyber operations targeting critical infrastructure
  • Estonian incorporation — directly within the jurisdiction that produced the Tallinn Manual
