A Review of Quantum Key Distribution Protocols in the Perspective of Smart Grid Communication Security

open access: yesIEEE Systems Journal, 2022
Smart grid depends on an advanced communication network to collect information from the power grid, and to disseminate control commands to the control devices.

Practical continuous-variable quantum key distribution with composable security [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
A quantum key distribution (QKD) system must fulfill the requirement of universal composability to ensure that any cryptographic application (using the QKD system) is also secure.

Noiseless Linear Amplifiers in Entanglement-Based Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution

open access: yesEntropy, 2015
We propose a method to improve the performance of two entanglement-based continuous-variable quantum key distribution protocols using noiseless linear amplifiers. The two entanglement-based schemes consist of an entanglement distribution protocol with an

A Review of Security Evaluation of Practical Quantum Key Distribution System

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
Although the unconditional security of quantum key distribution (QKD) has been widely studied, the imperfections of the practical devices leave potential loopholes for Eve to spy the final key.

Receiver-device-independent quantum key distribution protocols

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2022
We discuss quantum key distribution protocols and their security analysis, considering a receiver-device-independent (RDI) model. The sender’s (Alice’s) device is partially characterized, in the sense that we assume bounds on the overlaps of the prepared

Deterministic and Efficient Quantum Key Distribution Using Entanglement Parity Bits and Ancillary Qubits

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2017
In this paper, we propose an efficient and deterministic quantum key distribution protocol for establishing a secret key between two untrusted users. In this protocol, a secret key is distributed to a sender and a receiver who share entangled states with

Attacks against a Simplified Experimentally Feasible Semiquantum Key Distribution Protocol

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
A semiquantum key distribution (SQKD) protocol makes it possible for a quantum party and a classical party to generate a secret shared key. However, many existing SQKD protocols are not experimentally feasible in a secure way using current technology. An

Quantum key distribution via quantum encryption

open access: yes, 2001
A quantum key distribution protocol based on quantum encryption is presented in this Brief Report. In this protocol, the previously shared Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen pairs act as the quantum key to encode and decode the classical cryptography key.

Secure quantum key distribution with realistic devices

open access: yes, 2020
Some years ago quantum hacking became popular: devices implementing the unbreakable quantum cryptography were shown to have imperfections which could be exploited by attackers.
