[{"type":"text","content":"Paris, France / Geneva, Switzerland , March 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Parrot CEO & founder Henri Seydoux together with SEALSQ General Manager Bernard Vian and EMEA Sales Director Fabien Treillaud at Embedded World, Nuremberg, on March 11, 2026. SEALSQ Corp (Nasdaq: LAES) (“SEALSQ” or the “Company”), a global leader in post-quantum semiconductor security, and Parrot SA, Europe’s leading commercial micro-UAV group, today announced the expansion of their long-standing strategic collaboration to integrate Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) technologies from SEALSQ into Parrot’s next generation of professional drones. A Partnership Built on Proven Security Excellence Parrot and SEALSQ have been working in close collaboration for several years to deliver industry-leading cybersecurity across Parrot’s professional drone lineup. SEALSQ’s secure semiconductor technology is embedded in Parrot’s current flagship platforms for defense, public safety, and government applications: the ANAFI UKR, Parrot’s latest ISR (Intelligence Surveillance Recognition) tactical micro-drone designed for demanding operational environments, and the CHUCK 3.0, Parrot’s autopilot powering all types of UAV platforms. Building on earlier deployments in the ANAFI Ai and ANAFI USA, SEALSQ’s role as Parrot’s trusted security partner has deepened with each new platform generation. Across all these systems, SEALSQ co-develops and provisions NIST “FIPS” compliant and Common Criteria EAL5+ certified Secure Elements, delivering cryptographic device identity, tamper-resistant key storage, and secure boot integrity. On the ANAFI UKR and CHUCK 3.0, SEALSQ’s Secure Element technology enables a comprehensive security architecture built for the most demanding government and defense missions: NIST “FIPS” compliant cryptographic operations providing hardware-rooted device identity and tamper-resistant key storage.Zero data shared without user consent.Full data privacy between drone and operator device, with optional sharing exclusively on secured sovereign servers.SD card AES-XTS encryption with a 512-bit key.Digitally signed firmware ensuring only authenticated software runs on the platform. This security architecture reflects the same principles pioneered on earlier Parrot platforms, the ANAFI Ai and ANAFI USA, where SEALSQ first established its role as Parrot’s embedded securi...
