Quantum Key Distribution

Are you prepared for Q-Day?

The day when a quantum computer will be able to break common encryption for the first time is inexorably approaching. Cyber criminals are already intercepting encrypted data and storing it for the long term ("Store now, decrypt later"). Their goal: to decrypt the information later with the help of quantum computers.

Data with a long information lifespan is particularly affected - for example from authorities, financial service providers and healthcare organizations. For them, it is essential to rely on encryption solutions that cannot be decrypted even decades from now. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is the ultimate in security.

Your QKD solution: physics instead of algorithms

With Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), we secure your data center links and site connections using a physical process that enables tap-proof key exchange. The keys are transmitted via fibre optics - any attempt to eavesdrop changes the status of the photons and is detected immediately.

Available hardware

What we do: We rely on the QKD systems of our partners ID Quantique and Quantum Optics Jena. They are linked to your existing hardware (Adtran/Nokia) via recognized standards, protocols and interfaces (e.g. GS ETSI 014).

Your benefit: You benefit from mature technology and a high level of compatibility with established market solutions, providing you with investment security.

Quantum-safe key infrastructure

What we do: We analyze your infrastructure and plan the necessary fiber optic connections, including all requirements for the successful use of QKD. This includes interfaces, certificates and other important parameters for smooth operation.

Your benefit: You receive uncompromising security against future threats - for the most critical applications as well as for intellectual property/patents, among other things.

Integration into your network architecture

What we do: QKD can be seamlessly integrated into your existing network structure. Our technicians take care of the entire implementation - from conception to installation and ongoing operation.

Your benefit: You save time and resources and can rely on a smooth, professional introduction of your QKD solution.

Advantage 1:

Maximum security

QKD detects every eavesdropping attempt in real time, as key transmission is based on quantum mechanics. A compromised key is immediately discarded. This makes subsequent decryption technically impossible.

Advantage 2:

Long-term protection

As QKD is based on physically based processes, security is maintained even in the event of future technological breakthroughs. This is ideal for data with a long information lifespan.

Advantage 3:

Range

QKD systems enable the generation of highly secure keys for a fiber optic link of up to 150 kilometers in length. This makes the technology particularly suitable for data center links and site networking.
