Quantum
Inherently secure
Advances in quantum will disrupt the cryptosystem that currently encodes transactions over the internet — but quantum networks are inherently secure, which means emerging quantum technology can also enable unbreakable cybersecurity.
CCI SWVA quantum research programs focus on:
- Incorporating photon loss tolerance, the quantum analog to codes used to protect against information loss in classical communication.
- Robust entanglement distribution in quantum networks.
- Network science and architectures for novel quantum information processing.
