Gorilla Technology and CHELPIS Accelerate Quantum-Safe SD-WAN to Global Market Deployment, Securing Sovereign Infrastructure for the Post-Quantum Era

- Moves Gorilla's Quantum-Safe SD-WAN from architecture into product integration and commercial readiness ahead of targeted April 2026 availability

- Expands Gorilla's cybersecurity and sovereign infrastructure positioning with integrated post-quantum capabilities across networking, communications and data protection

Taipei, Taiwan--(Newsfile Corp. - May 15, 2026) - Gorilla Technology Group Inc. (NASDAQ:GRRR) ("Gorilla" or the "Company"), a global solution provider in Security Intelligence, Network Intelligence, Business Intelligence, IoT technology and data centres, today announced the signing of a strategic Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with CHELPIS Quantum Corporation ("CHELPIS"), a Taiwan-based post-quantum cryptography specialist, to integrate CHELPIS's post-quantum cryptography implementation into Gorilla's Software-Defined Wide Area Network ("SD-WAN") platform and to jointly pursue global commercial opportunities for quantum-safe security solutions.

This collaboration marks a critical step in Gorilla's post-quantum strategy, advancing its Quantum-Safe SD-WAN initiative from architectural design into product enablement and commercial deployment. Gorilla previously announced its Quantum-Safe SD-WAN under the Gorilla Intelligent Network Director platform in October 2025 and indicated in its March 2026 full-year results that the solution was targeted for availability in April 2026.

Under this MOU, Gorilla integrates CHELPIS's CPQC SDK - a production-ready PQC library featuring NIST Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP)-validated implementations of FIPS 203, FIPS 204 and FIPS 205 - into its SD-WAN platform and gains global resale rights to CHELPIS's PQC portfolio, including PQScan, PQTunnel, PQRP, PQStorage and CPQC. The collaboration establishes a joint marketing framework, coordinated sales engagement and cross-selling capabilities to facilitate the adoption of quantum-resilient solutions across Gorilla's global customer base.

The transition to quantum-safe cryptography is increasingly viewed as a near-term requirement rather than a long-term research topic. Organisations in banking, government and critical infrastructure are beginning to address the risk of "harvest now, decrypt later" attacks, where encrypted data captured today may be decrypted in the future as quantum capabilities mature. This creates immediate demand for migration pathways toward quantum-resilient networks.

Industry analysts estimate that the global post-quantum cryptography market could exceed $10 billion by the early 2030s, growing at more than 35% annually, while the global SD-WAN market is already estimated at $8 billion to $10 billion today and projected to exceed $30 billion by 2030, driven by enterprise network modernisation and cloud adoption. Gorilla believes the convergence of these two high-growth markets creates a significant opportunity for integrated, quantum-safe networking platforms.

Strategically, the collaboration strengthens Gorilla's ability to monetise its SD-WAN platform through the inclusion of quantum-safe capabilities, while also creating incremental revenue opportunities through the resale of CHELPIS's PQC solutions across Gorilla's enterprise and sovereign customer base. Gorilla expects quantum-safe capabilities to become a premium feature within SD-WAN deployments, particularly in regulated sectors, with higher contract values and longer-term customer commitments. This positions Gorilla to capture value both at the network layer and across broader cryptographic transformation programmes.

Ming Chih, CEO of CHELPIS Quantum Corporation, stated: "We are proud to empower Gorilla by integrating our world-class PQC technology to align their offerings with the highest international security standards. As a pioneer in production-grade PQC, CHELPIS provides the engineering maturity required to translate NIST standards into actionable, high-performance solutions-evidenced by our technology becoming among the elite few globally to achieve NIST CAVP validation for FIPS 203, 204, and 205 in early 2026. We stand firmly with our clients, empowering them to penetrate and lead in global markets through relentless innovation, ensuring our products and our partners maintain a decisive competitive edge in the quantum era."

Dr. Rajesh Natarajan, Chief Technology Officer of Gorilla Technology, said: "This collaboration moves our post-quantum strategy into a far more practical phase. It is not just about having a PQC narrative. It is about embedding that capability into the product and making it actionable for customers. Our earlier work defined the direction for Quantum-Safe SD-WAN. This collaboration strengthens the implementation layer and creates a clearer pathway to deployment across sectors where cryptographic resilience, digital sovereignty and long-term trust are essential. As customers increasingly recognise that quantum disruption is not a distant theoretical issue but a real security consideration, they need solutions that are deployable, scalable and commercially viable. This is exactly what we are positioning Gorilla to deliver."

Through this collaboration, Gorilla expects to enhance how it engages with customers evaluating quantum migration strategies, particularly those requiring both secure networking infrastructure and a broader roadmap for post-quantum adoption. The integration of PQC capabilities into SD-WAN enables Gorilla to offer a more comprehensive solution spanning secure connectivity, encrypted communications, transport protection and data storage resilience.
