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 کاملA quantum cloning bound and application to quantum key distribution
Quantum key distribution (QKD) was proposed nearly 30 years ago by Bennett and Brassard [1] as a way to generate and distribute cryptographic keys whose security is guaranteed by the laws of physics, and in particular inherent limitations of quantum physics, rather than assumed limitations of a potential adversary’s computational power. Since that time, especially in the last 15 years or so, ge...
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 کاملQuantum-locked key distribution at nearly the classical capacity rate.
Quantum data locking is a protocol that allows for a small secret key to (un)lock an exponentially larger amount of information, hence yielding the strongest violation of the classical one-time pad encryption in the quantum setting. This violation mirrors a large gap existing between two security criteria for quantum cryptography quantified by two entropic quantities: the Holevo information and...
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...
