"Researchers Introduce the First All-Optical, Stealth Data Encryption Technology"
The first all-optical "stealth" encryption technology has been introduced by Ben-Gurion University of the Negev's (BGU) technology-transfer company, BGN Technologies. The optical end-to-end solution will significantly improve upon the security and privacy of highly sensitive cloud-computing and data center network transmission. Researchers stressed that intensive computing power could be used to break the code of digital encryption technology. Therefore, the researchers developed an end-to-end solution that uses optical equipment instead of digital technology to provide encryption, transmission, decryption, and detection. This article continues to discuss the first all-optical stealth encryption technology developed by BGU researchers in relation to its capabilities and process, as well as the weaknesses of digital encryption technology.
