Anhui Provincial Key Laboratory for Quantum Computing Chips said China's BenYuan Wukong series of domestically developed superconducting quantum computers has cumulatively completed over 1 million global quantum computing tasks, continuing to deliver stable, reliable autonomous quantum compute capacity to international users. The systems incorporate a post-quantum cryptography (PQC) protection framework and have achieved coordination between compute supply and security protection ('spear' and 'shield'), preliminarily building an attack-and-defense-capable quantum computing service platform.
