Insider Brief SRI will establish the Quantum Manufacturing Engineering Center through an expanded NIST collaboration to help scale U.S. production of quantum components and systems. The center will initially focus on manufacturing challenges tied to cryostats, lasers, quantum chips, integrated photonic circuits, standards, quality control and domestic supply chains. SRI said QMEC will work with … Read more

A single fake error report hijacked Claude Code in controlled testing — the agent ran the attacker’s code with the developer’s full privileges, and not one alert fired. EDR, WAF, IAM, and the firewall all missed it completely.Tenet Security’s June agentjacking disclosure describes a single crafted Sentry error event — sent through a public credential … Read more

Insider Brief WiMi Hologram is researching the use of neural network models to optimize parameter selection in twin-field quantum key distribution (TF-QKD) systems, aiming to reduce computation time and improve system performance. The company evaluated three machine learning models—BPNN, RBFNN, and GRNN—and found that RBFNN and GRNN delivered higher prediction accuracy in high-dimensional parameter spaces, … Read more

Insider Brief Researchers at Texas A&M University developed a laser-based technique called Thermostable Raman Interaction Profiling (TRIP) that directly measures quantum forces involved in protein interactions and drug binding. The team demonstrated the technique on the SARS-CoV-2 main protease, showing that it could predict how effectively antiviral drugs bind by measuring changes in molecular vibrations. … Read more

Insider Brief QuTech researchers demonstrated a coherent interface between a diamond tin-vacancy (SnV) quantum emitter and a nanophotonic cavity, advancing the development of scalable quantum networks. The team achieved coherent coupling above the key threshold for high-fidelity quantum operations and demonstrated near-complete control over light transmission using a single quantum emitter. Researchers also fabricated and … Read more

Insider Brief Researchers found that changing the excitation wavelength can significantly improve the performance of spin defects in hexagonal boron nitride for two-dimensional quantum sensing. Red light excitation produced nearly 100% spin-dependent readout contrast and a threefold calculated improvement in DC magnetic field sensitivity compared with green light. The study also found a trade-off between … Read more

Insider Brief Researchers reported that a driven one-dimensional gas of ultracold cesium atoms can be engineered into a highly ordered non-equilibrium quantum state known as a fractional Fermi sea. The study shows that cyclically changing interactions between strongly repulsive and strongly attractive regimes can reorganize atoms into a highly excited state rather than simply heating … Read more
