In an article published this month, ID Quantque (IDQ) CEO Gregoire Ribordy explains “Why it’s time to implement a quantum-safe network.” As the quantum technologies ecosystem continues to expand rapidly, advances in QKD and PQC make a compelling case for cybersecurity professionals to act today to secure the future. In an extract from the article, Mr. … Continue reading
Optical technologies are increasingly central to the growth of satellite communication constellations. These technologies not only facilitate diverse satellite networks and ground-to-satellite connections, but also promise enhanced anti-interference through space laser communication’s narrow beam property. Bridging the gap between varying optical networks, optical format conversion technologies come into play. Among these, Optical Inter-Satellite Links (OISLs) … Continue reading
In work recently published in Nature Communications, researchers from Sorbonne Université, the University of Vienna, California Institute of Technology and Université de Paris have, for the first time, experimentally demonstrated quantum weak coin flipping — a cryptographic primitive which allows two mistrustful parties to agree on a random bit when they favor opposite outcomes. The … Continue reading
Laser power meters measure laser power and power stability. CNI has produced a suite of laser power and stability measurement instruments to cover a wide range of wavelengths and power levels. CNI devices are designed for accuracy easy operation to fully meet customer needs to measure laser power and power stability. CNI’s products are widely used for … Continue reading
