Secure optical data communication using quantum cryptography and Li-Fi
Modern quantum technology opens up many new areas of application. But it also harbours risks. Due to their enormous computing power, quantum computers could undermine even the most modern data encryption methods.
Secure quantum communication for critical identity access management infrastructures
The security of digital identities is threatened by future quantum technologies. In the hands of attackers, quantum computers will be able to break classical encryption methods. To fend off such attacks, four partners launched the Quant-ID project. In this project, they are researching the development of novel methods and systems that guarantee cryptographic security in the long term based on quantum random numbers and post-quantum cryptography. ...
