Quantum Flows for Secret Key Distribution
In practice, the security of a Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) system relies not only on quantum mechanical principles, but it also significantly relies on the physical implementation of the protocol. Nowadays, technological detector loopholes of QKD systems have been demonstrated, and some successful attacks that exploit vulnerabilities of the Avalanche Photo Diodes (APD’s) have been performed....
متن کاملTopological optimization of quantum key distribution networks
A Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) network is an infrastructure that allows the realization of the key distribution cryptographic primitive over long distances and at high rates with information-theoretic security. In this work, we consider QKD networks based on trusted repeaters from a topology viewpoint, and present a set of analytical models that can be used to optimize the spatial distributio...
متن کاملSecret Key Establishment for Symmetric Encryption over Adhoc Networks
The adhoc environment is accessible to both legitimate network users and unfortunately to malicious attackers as well. Secure routing over mobile adhoc networks is hard to achieve because of dynamic topology, mobility of nodes, lack of centralized infrastructure and absence of a certification authority. When a new mobile node joins the network and it does not have any trust based relationship w...
متن کاملImproved Secret Key Rate in Quantum Key Distribution using highly irregular Low-Density Parity-Check codes
Quantum key distribution (QKD) has proven to be the most mature subfield of quantum information theory, elegantly spanning the gap between theory and practice. It is a simple, and yet sophisticated idea, in which the fundamental principles of modern quantum mechanics are employed to distribute a provably secure cryptographic key between two parties. With many variations of this scheme realized,...
متن کاملIterative Secret Key Rate Adapting with Error Minimization for Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution
We define an iterative error-minimizing secret key adapting method for multicarrier CVQKD. A multicarrier CVQKD protocol uses Gaussian subcarrier quantum continuous variables (CVs) for the transmission. The proposed method allows for the parties to reach a given target secret key rate with minimized error rate through the Gaussian subchannels by a sub-channel adaption procedure. The adaption al...
