• Suppliers and distributors of quantum components, including lasers, microwave systems, and shielding materials

Quantum Computing

Quantum computers represent a leap forward in computing, harnessing the principles of quantum mechanics to perform calculations that are impossible for classical systems.Unlike traditional computers that process bits as 0s or 1s, quantum systems use qubits, enabling extraordinary parallelism and computational power.

This technology has the potential to drive the next scientific and industrial revolution, but it comes with extraordinary fragility. Quantum coherence is everything. Cryogenic cooling requirements are extreme, qubits are highly sensitive to environmental noise, and the control systems are exceptionally complex. Custom-built components are often irreplaceable, meaning a single vibration, power fluctuation, or shielding failure can cause total decoherence.

ATA insures the infrastructure that will unlock quantum potential, from national laboratory cleanrooms to the first commercial quantum data centers. Our underwriting team understands cryogenic systems, electromagnetic shielding, qubit stability, control plane electronics, and supporting laser and microwave systems. We offer coverages spanning property, research and development downtime, cyber, and cargo, with market-leading capacity and financial strength to support clients pioneering this frontier.
