Quantum Secret Communication without an Encryption Key
Quantum cryptographic methods increase security over classical methods. To date, quantum algorithms aim to distribute a secret key to be used afterwards to encrypt messages. The method described in this paper does not use an encryption key at all. An array of qubits is transmitted from the source to the destination with the message encoded in the phase of the qubit. The secrecy of the message d...
متن کاملQuantum 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 کاملSecurity of trusted repeater quantum key distribution networks
A Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) network is an infrastructure capable of performing long-distance and high-rate secret key agreement with information-theoretic security. In this paper we study security properties of QKD networks based on trusted repeater nodes. Such networks can already be deployed, based on current technology. We present an example of a trusted repeater QKD network, developed ...
متن کاملQuantum cryptography and secret-key distillation
Quantum cryptography (or quantum key distribution) is a state-of-the-art technique that exploits the properties of quantum mechanics to guarantee the secure exchange of secret keys. This self-contained text introduces the principles and techniques of quantum cryptography, setting it in the wider context of cryptography and security, with specific focus on secret-key distillation. The book start...
