Untappable quantum cryptography becomes practical with MDI-QKD

Engineers from QuTech can provide untappable communication that is cost-scaling to many users by using measurement-device independent (MDI) quantum key distribution (QKD). A notable side-feature is that, courtesy of Cisco, conventional internet operates in parallel, on the same optical fibre from Dutch telecom provider KPN. MDI-QKD is an important step towards an accessible quantum ...
