“NUS Scientist Develops ‘Toolboxes’ for Quantum Cybersecurity”

With the aim of measuring the security of high-speed quantum communication, a quantum information scientist from the National University of Singapore (NUS) by the name of Charles Lim has developed “toolboxes” to help perform such analysis. A recent breakthrough in quantum computing by researchers at Duke University, The Ohio State University, and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, improved upon the rate at which quantum key distribution (QKD) performs. The toolboxes that have been developed, consist of a unique mixture of security proof techniques and an interferometry technique to help measure the security of high-dimensional QKD. This article further discusses the recent achievement of high-rate quantum secure communication, concerns surrounding the implementation of quantum computers, QKD technology, time-bin encoding, along with the tools and protocols used to quantify the security of high-speed quantum communication.
