Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 9, 2026) - Integrated Cyber Solutions Inc. (CSE: ICS) (OTCQB: IGCRF) (FSE: Y4G), doing business as Integrated Quantum Technologies ("Integrated Quantum", "IQT", or the "Company"), is pleased to provide a strategic shareholder update highlighting the Company's recent milestones and continued execution of its enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure strategy. The Company also announced its corporate name change to Integrated Quantum Technologies Inc.

Over the past year, the Company has executed on a series of strategic initiatives which have established the technology, leadership, intellectual property (IP) and commercial capabilities in support of its long-term enterprise AI infrastructure strategy. Management believes these achievements position the Company for its next phase of growth.

Building the Foundation

During the year, the Company invested in leadership, IP, technology development, and commercialization to support the growth of a scalable enterprise AI infrastructure business.

The Company strengthened its financial position through two oversubscribed financing rounds, raising more than C$5.5 million to support technology development, IP, commercialization and organizational growth.

The Company also assembled a leadership team with deep expertise across AI, enterprise engineering, finance and commercialization. Key appointments included:

• Chief Financial Officer - Mickey Goldstein,
• Chief Technology Officer - Anita Oehley,
• Executive Vice President of AI & Innovation - Jeremy Samuelson,
• Head of Enterprise Engineering & Product Execution - Gustin Prudner, former Vice President of Engineering at Equifax

The Company has also advanced its IP strategy through the filing of a provisional U.S. patent application covering its proprietary Informationally Compressive Anonymization (ICA™) technology, which underpins VEIL™. In March, the Company published its initial technical white paper and subsequently released a significantly expanded update in May which incorporated additional technical validation, security evaluations and machine learning case studies. Building on this foundation, the Company has initiated the patent process for MASQ™ (Machine Action Security Quotient), extending its IP portfolio to address governance and security challenges associated with autonomous AI agents.

Leveraging its proprietary ICA™ technology, the Company advanced VEIL™ from development through technical validation and into commercialization, including the launch of the VEIL™ Snowflake Native Application.

Management believes these milestones establish a strong foundation for the Company's long-term strategy of delivering enterprise AI infrastructure and security technologies, including secure, privacy-preserving and quantum-resilient AI solutions for enterprise environments.

Independent Validation

Management's strategy reflects the view that enterprise adoption requires more than technological innovation -it also requires confidence in the underlying technology. Since introducing VEIL™, the Company has pursued a multi-layered validation strategy through independent academic review, third-party security assessment, public adversarial testing and expanded technical research.

"From the beginning, our objective has been to validate VEIL™ through transparency, independent review and real-world testing," said Alan Guibord, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "With our technical research published, independent validation completed, the VEIL™ Snowflake Native Application launched and commercial discussions with enterprise organizations underway, our next priority is demonstrating VEIL™ through enterprise proof-of-concept projects and production deployments. Those deployments represent important milestones in our commercialization strategy."

The Company's participation at Snowflake Summit further supported enterprise engagement by showcasing VEIL™ to prospective enterprise customers, technology partners and industry participants while expanding commercial discussions around enterprise AI infrastructure.

Expanding the Platform Vision

Management considers privacy, governance, security, trust, and quantum resilience to be foundational to enterprise AI infrastructure. As enterprise AI becomes increasingly integrated into mission-critical business operations, these capabilities are expected to become baseline requirements for enterprise adoption.

As part of this long-term strategy, the Company has initiated the patent process for MASQ™ (Machine Action Security Quotient), a technology intended to address governance and security challenges associated with autonomous AI agents. Management expects the platform to continue evolving through internal innovation, strategic IP development and future technologies addressing emerging enterprise AI requirements.

Together with VEIL™, SecureGuard360™ and future proprietary technologies, these initiatives represent the foundation of a growing enterprise AI infrastructure platform supporting long-term IP expansion and commercial software development.

Executing the Growth Strategy

With foundational elements in place, Management's near-term priorities include advancing enterprise proof-of-concept deployments, expanding strategic customer and partner relationships, commercializing VEIL™, progressing development of MASQ™ following completion of the patent application process, and continuing to expand the Company's enterprise AI infrastructure platform.

Management expects enterprise AI adoption to continue to accelerate and that organizations will increasingly require infrastructure technologies addressing privacy, governance, security and trust. With its proprietary technology portfolio, expanding IP, an experienced leadership team, and a growing enterprise engagement, the Company is positioned to execute its long-term strategy of building a leading enterprise AI infrastructure business.

Corporate Name Change

Following shareholder approval at the Company's Annual General Meeting, the Company intends to change its corporate name from Integrated Cyber Solutions Inc. to Integrated Quantum Technologies Inc.

The Company has reserved the new name and trading symbol and is currently coordinating the name change process with its transfer agent, the Canadian Securities Exchange, CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc., and other applicable agencies. The Company will issue a further news release announcing the effective date of the name change, the new CUSIP and ISIN numbers, the date on which the Company's common shares will commence trading under the new name and trading symbol, and any other relevant implementation details once finalized.

The new corporate name reflects the Company's strategic focus on enterprise AI infrastructure and its long-term vision of building foundational technologies that address privacy, governance, trust, security and quantum resilience.
