Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) Demystified
Date:
This comprehensive lecture demystifies quantum key distribution for faculty members and researchers new to quantum cryptography. We cover fundamental principles, practical protocols (BB84, BBM92, MDI-QKD, CV-QKD), security proofs, and real-world implementations.
Key Topics
- Quantum key distribution principles
- Major QKD protocols and their properties
- Security analysis and proofs
- Practical implementations and commercial systems
- Integration with existing infrastructure
Audience: Faculty members and researchers across engineering and physics departments
