Quantum Technology for Cybersecurity

Quantum computers will break the security of current cryptosystem used to secure all of today’s communication. Here, I will present solutions to this problem based on quantum technology.

About the talk:
Quantum computers are heavily researched and constant progress is reported. While quantum computers are expected to solve important problems in drug development, finance and logistics, it is also clear that they will break current cryptosystems.

Solutions to this problem are already required now as encrypted data can be harvested and deciphered later when the technology is available. To solve this problem new cryptosystems based on quantum physics are at the horizon providing future proof security. In this talk I will discuss them and outline activities in Denmark towards their deployment.
