At MWC Barcelona 2026, Arqit and Intel sat down with Mobile World Live to discuss how telecom operators and enterprises are addressing growing data sovereignty challenges.
As organisations increasingly rely on cloud infrastructure, edge computing, and AI, maintaining control over data - while meeting regulatory and security requirements - has become a critical issue.
In this conversation, we explore:
• Why data sovereignty is becoming a major challenge for telecoms
• The role of edge AI and distributed infrastructure
• How secure key generation and encryption are evolving
• How Arqit and Intel are working together to enable secure, scalable solutions
The discussion highlights how Arqit’s NetworkSecure is pre-packaged on platforms based on Intel® NetSec Accelerator Reference Design, and how that delivers secure encryption key generation for edge AI, PQC and data sovereignty applications.
