Group leader: Marcin Pawłowski

The broad aim of the Quantum Cybersecurity and Communication Group is to develop quantum solutions for problems in communication and information security.

Activity

Specific goals include the development of:
– Quantum key distribution protocols with low hardware requirements.
– Quantum true random number generators.
– Existing and new quantum cryptographic primitives.
– Methods for secure communication and computation.
– Formal security proofs of quantum cryptographic protocols.
– Tools for cryptoanalysis.
– Commercialisation and industrial outreach.

Keywords: quantum cryptography, random number generation, cryptoanalysis, quantum communication, quantum key distribution, device-independent protocols.
