So What Are Applications of Quantum Technology?
Throughout history, there have been revolutionary technological innovations that have changed the way the world operates and quantum technology is set to be the next of these developments. While quantum computing is regularly discussed in the media, it is largely hogging the limelight – that’s right, the scope of quantum tech is far broader than just increasing computing power beyond anything that is currently available. With some of it very close to the market, it’s quite strange that we don’t hear about all the other elements of quantum technology that are soon going to change our lives.
Czech Republic Opens Quantum Security Lab, Plans to Secure National Data
The new laboratory with the so-called quantum communication infrastructure is available to experts from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Communication of the Brno University of Technology. The laboratory will enable scientists to work on next-generation computer networks that will also be protected from quantum computer attacks, to which the vast majority of current networks, including the Internet, are vulnerable.

International Telecommunications Union (ITU) Piecing Together Quantum Random Number Generator Standards
International Telecommunications Union (ITU) Piecing Together Quantum Random Number Generator Standards Though quantum random number generation may be naturally secure, caution is needed when making the presumption of complete security. Into the flow of the QRNG numbers, it is possible to inject non-random data. Recent studies indicate potential for eavesdropping attacks on the QRNG. See […]
