A new quantum communication method uses the temporal Talbot effect to simplify high-dimensional quantum key distribution.

Nation-states and malicious actors are collecting encrypted data so they can read it with future quantum computers. These ...

Once quantum computers become a commercial reality, they will change the ground rules for cryptography. Here's how quantum cryptography would work, and an explanation of the benefits and pitfalls of ...

A new type of optical fiber filled with nothing but thin air has been found to be particularly effective for carrying out quantum key distribution (QKD), a security protocol that is in principle ...

A claimed first-of-a-kind quantum key distribution network offers 800 Gbps encryption under real-world environmental conditions and has been demonstrated to detect and defend against quantum threats.

A method known as quantum key distribution has long held the promise of communication security unattainable in conventional cryptography. An international team of scientists has now demonstrated ...

Quantum computers have been on the horizon for several years, but recent breakthroughs mean we could expect to see enterprise-level quantum computers within 20 years. Given their ability to perform ...
