Do you want to bring quantum technology into action by building a quantum key distribution network in Denmark? Then we have a great opportunity for you!
Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a quantum technology that enables data encryption with future proof security in contrast to current cryptographic methods which can be broken by quantum computers. This makes QKD an important technology to protect governmental communication, critical infrastructure and financial data.
Our motivation is to deploy our continuous-variable QKD systems to establish a metropolitan and a long-distance quantum key distribution network in Denmark and to test possible governmental and other use-cases. The project is part of the EuroQCI initiative of the European Union.
Our QKD system QTREX is based on continuous variable technology with a working principle similar to telecommunication systems. Here you can find more information about our system:
