Zürcher Nachrichten - Datavault AI and Available Infrastructure to Scale Physical Private Edge Cloud to Deliver Powerful Zero Trust Cybersecurity, Digital Twin and Agentic Data Monetization to 100 U.S. Cities in 2026

PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA / ACCESS Newswire / January 5, 2026 / Datavault AI ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:DVLT) a leader in AI-driven data valuation, monetization, credentialing, and digital engagement technologies today announced a nationwide planned deployment of SanQtum in partnership with AP Global Holdings LLC (d/b/a Available Infrastructure) to enable secure communications, encrypted storage, and high-performance data processing across 100 cities throughout the contiguous United States. Built to support Datavault AI's patented IDE, which helps turn raw data into tradable assets, this deployment is designed to deliver lower latency, stronger cyber protection, and consistent performance across distributed environments.

By combining Datavault AI's RWA tokenization with Available Infrastructure's distributed architecture, the companies aim to deliver secure points of presence that support workflows where speed, integrity, and trust are essential. Datavault AI's IDE helps create a digital twin of a physical asset by linking it to a permanent, tamper-resistant record, stored as immutable metadata or on a blockchain. As the nationwide deployment scales, the companies expect the combined footprint to accelerate trusted tokenization, exchange, and valuation by placing secure data processing closer to where data is created and decisions are made.

"Performance and presence in this precursor to true quantum computing starts with command of our own and the first virtual private network that will rival power-strapped bulky data center build outs with a redundant, cybersecure cluster of Available Infrastructure's SanQtum and Datavault AI servers that can do more with less power consumption and absent the burden of coolant required of legacy systems," said Nathaniel Bradley, CEO, Datavault AI. "This deployment advances our ability to achieve true immutability of digital objects through Quantum Key Encryption that is foundational to support high-integrity zero-trust tokenization. Our coming and market superior data exchange with hundreds of tokenomic use cases will provide first-of-its-kind secure infrastructure positioned closer to the point of need. We have an opportunity to really impact our customers' bottom lines while bolstering our industry lead and making access to super compute power sustainable and obtainable by companies of all sizes and in markets of our choosing, starting here in the United States the most lucrative."

"SanQtum provides the cybersecurity vault for Datavault AI. With edge compute projected to grow at a nearly 30% CAGR through 2033, now is the time to build Datavault AI's sovereign cloud at the nation's edge. In our preliminary estimation, each network location has a servicable addressable market (SAM) potential exceeding $100 million per annum driven by regional demand for high performance computing applications including digital twins and data monetization, making Datavault AI our ideal partner," stated Daniel C. Gregory, CEO of Available Infrastructure. "Through SanQtum, we are deploying secure edge nodes built for high availability and ultra-low latency with zero trust controls, enabling Datavault AI to bring trusted quantum encrypted tokenization, exchange, and valuation to the edge, at national scale."

Following the initial rollout, Datavault AI and Available Infrastructure will align deployment standards and operational tooling to connect Datavault capabilities, focused on real-time data observation, market capture, valuation, and secure, encrypted monetization of data assets, to a national footprint of hardened edge locations. This footprint enables customers to collect and process data closer to the point of creation, then generate permanent records, confirm identity, and connect RWAs to immutable blockchain entries at the speed of operations.

Datavault AI: Patent-Backed tokenization and Data-provenance capabilities
Datavault AI is a technology and patent portfolio-driven company positioned in RWA tokenization through a strategic licensing model and through a platform that helps organizations connect RWAs to immutable blockchain records for traceability, authenticity, and monetization. The Company highlights its exchange platform as a foundation for securely attaching physical real-world objects to immutable metadata or blockchain objects, supporting use cases such as digital twins and "responsible AI with integrity," while also enabling integration with compliant blockchains to create tokenized solutions tailored to customer needs.

Available Infrastructure: Secure, Highly Available, Distributed Platform

Available Infrastructure will provide the distributed solution through SanQtum, a real-time edge platform that bundles edge cloud services and zero trust cybersecurity in a single platform. SanQtum will operate across distributed micro data centers in, and around, major metropolitan areas and urban centers. SanQtum pre-integrates a technology stack in a micro edge data center form factor, ready for deployment from near-prem urban sites to telecom towers to austere environments, to run intelligent, sovereign workloads directly at the edge without sending data back to the cloud.

Urban sites and other on-prem and near-prem edge locations plus fiber optic communications can deliver ultra-low latency in supported configurations. SanQtum applies a CISA-compliant zero trust approach and NIST-approved quantum-resilient encryption. Its multi-site architecture spans multiple locations and communications paths, including in-ground fiber optic, SATCOM, and a wireless self-healing mesh, with resilient backup power to support operational resilience and continuity.

Deployment highlights

• Secure communications with standardized controls across distributed sites

• Secure storage and near-edge compute positioned closer to operations and data sources

• Secure data processing designed for performance-sensitive and mission-critical workflows

• Zero trust, quantum-resilient protection in private mesh environments

• High availability and continuity supported by multi-site, multi-channel architecture

Looking Ahead

Datavault AI and Available Infrastructure look forward to expanding this national rollout and supporting additional customer deployments that benefit from secure communications, secure storage, near-edge compute, and secure data processing. As coverage scales across the U.S., the companies expect the combined infrastructure footprint to help accelerate trusted tokenization, exchange, and valuation workflows by placing cybersecure edge nodes closer to where data is generated and decisions are made.
