Quantum Key Distribution Without Sifting
We propose a novel quantum key distribution protocol that uses AES to expand an initial secret, allowing us to individually authenticate every qubit, with tags that are efficient to construct. In exchange for an increase in the amount of classical data to be transmitted, the tags can be handled such that they allow secure key generation from two photon states, and make BB84 exactly 100% efficie...
متن کاملSecurity of Quantum Key Distribution
We construct a new quantum key distribution scheme and prove its security against the most general type of attacks and the most general type of noises allowed by quantum physics. The novel technique we use is reduction from a quantum scheme to a classical scheme. We first show that, rather surprisingly, the proof of security of our quantum key distribution in the error-free case can be reduced ...
متن کاملSecurity of quantum key distribution
Der sicheren Übertragung und Aufbewahrung vertraulicher Daten kommt in unserer von Information dominierten Gesellschaft immer grössere Bedeutung zu. Die heute gebräuchlichen Verfahren zur Datenverschlüsselung bieten allerdings nur berschränkte, so-genannt berechenmässige, Sicherheit. Das bedeutet, dass diese prinzipiell von einem Angreifer, der über genügend Rechenleistung (zum Beispiel einen, ...
متن کاملSifting problems in finite-size quantum key distribution Extended Abstract
Quantum key distribution (QKD) allows for unconditionally secure communication between two parties (Alice and Bob). A recent breakthrough in the theory of QKD is the treatment of finite-key scenarios, pioneered by Renner and collaborators (see [1], for example). This has made QKD theory practically relevant, since the asymptotic regime associated with infinitely many exchanged quantum signals i...
متن کاملSecurity Aspect of Quantum Key Distribution
Is the newly born quantum cryptography the ultimate solution for information security? A technique needs to be both theoretically strong and practically viable. But quantum cryptography comes to naught in the latter. Unlike many of the classical cryptosystems in use today, whose security often draws on unproven assumptions about the computational complexity of mathematical problems, the securit...
