Chinese team accomplishes world's first quantum encryption experiment on drone

China Daily  

NANJING -- Chinese scientists have performed quantum experiments at various levels, including metropolitan, intercity, intercontinental, and in space. The researchers from Nanjing University and University of Science and Technology of China have pioneered a global first by completing a quantum key distribution experiment based on a drone platform. It demonstrated that mobile platforms like drones are capable of carrying out more practical quantum tasks that require the capability to directly transmit single photons to end-users. The team established a low-loss, high-fidelity optical quantum link between a small multi-rotor drone in flight and a ground station over a distance of 200 meters. With the capability of secret key distribution using a drone, wireless communication can be expected with enhanced security in the quantum approach between mobile nodes toward a network, said the researchers.

Quantum cryptography: Digital security will get a shot in the arm

Live Mint  

Imagine sending a secret message to someone. In 2016, it launched the world’s first quantum communication satellite, Micius, which achieved long-distance QKD by transmitting quantum keys between ground stations separated by over 1,200km. The EU is making significant strides in quantum cryptography, focusing on collaboration and integration across member states. The Quantum Flagship initiative, launched in 2018, is a €1 …

DRDO successfully demonstrates quantum communication between two labs

The Hindu  

The Defence Research and Development Organisation on Wednesday successfully demonstrated communication between its two labs using Quantum Key Distribution technology, which is a “robust” way to share encryption keys, said an official statement. quantum based communication offers a robust solution to sharing the keys securely,” said an official statement. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh congratulated the DRDO for successful demonstration of …
