Hub PhD opportunity!

The realisation of a large-scale quantum computer is going to completely break the security infrastructure we rely on today as Quantum algorithms can break the widely used RSA and ECC families of Public Key Cryptography (PKC). There are two major approaches to counter the threat. First is Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), which can provide cryptographic […]
