Yet at least one tangible quantum technology solution exists—quantum key distribution, or QKD, whereby two secure end points ...
Quantum key distribution (QKD) harnesses the power of quantum mechanics to securely transmit confidential information. When an outside source eavesdrops on a QKD transmission, the quantum states are ...
As part of the QuNET project, researchers have demonstrated how quantum key distribution works reliably via hybrid and mobile channels. The results are milestones for sovereign, quantum-secured ...
C-DAC demonstrated a B92 QKD system on a mobile platform using a 50-metre Free-Space Optical link with GPS-based precision ...
As quantum computing advances, interoperable standards will be the key to making QKD practical, trusted, and future-proof.
The experimental layout of the sender Alice and the receiver Bob. Alice’s setup contains the excitation and collection setup of the single photon source, and a Sagnac-like polarization modulator for ...
With quantum computing closing in and every network only as strong as its weakest link, securing a path to quantum-safe resilience has never been more imperative ...
