In South Korea, a QKD cryptography system has now been officially certified for secure use for the first time.

Besides the mere generation of quantum-safe keys by Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), the further procedure with the keys, such as storage, management, and distribution to the target applications just in time, also plays a major role in the ongoing security. Often, this equally important field is stil...

In the field of quantum computers, another step towards commercialization could soon be achieved.

The Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) has limits, especially regarding distances. However, general useability has been shown in the context of large (scientific) testbeds. International standards are available. There already exist products that are suitable for normal operational/technical environments...

The ongoing development of quantum computers affects the security of currently used encryption and authentication schemes. Therefore, this document presents 'Post Quantum Cryptography' (PQC) and 'Quantum Key Distribution' (QKD). PQC describes software based approaches for quantum safe encryption and...

Before a new technology can be commercially used on a large scale, first some practical experience has to be obtained. This is usually done in testbeds, where commercial hardware is used under realistic conditions. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) facilitates the generation of common secret random nu...
