At AFCEA West 2025 in San Diego, M42 joined Dell Technologies and NVIDIA to demonstrate how Quantum Helix can support the Navy’s modernization vision.
A Culture of Rapid Innovation
Conversations throughout AFCEA West made clear that accelerating naval capability is as much about culture as it is about technology. Leaders are looking for industry partners who can help them adopt, adapt, and field new capabilities at operational speed.
Data-Centric Security and AI-Driven Decision Support
M42’s contribution centered on data-centric security and AI-driven mission support. Rather than relying only on platform or network controls, Quantum Helix applies labels and access policy directly to data so information remains protected wherever it travels.
For AI-driven operations, that matters because decision support depends on being able to integrate, share, and act on data across services and partners without collapsing security boundaries.
Interoperability Across Joint and Allied Forces
Quantum Helix supports cross-boundary collaboration, extended operational reach, and rapid integration across joint and allied forces. Each node in a coalition can enforce its own requirements while still sharing critical information under policy.
Looking Ahead
AFCEA West reinforced the idea that the future is already here. Naval forces are moving toward data-driven, software-centric operations, and QHx is designed to provide the high-assurance fabric those operations require.
