Toshiba and the ToMMo applied Toshiba QKD to achieve world-first quantum cryptography communication averaging distribution speeds exceeding 10 Mbps

ETSI has just released a Protection Profile (PP) for the security evaluation of quantum key distribution (QKD) modules, ETSI GS QKD 016.

The full video interview featuring Andrew Lord, Senior Manager of Optical Research at BT and Dr Andrew Shields, Head of Toshiba’s Quantum Technology Division.

Experts discuss how BT and Toshiba worked together to bring quantum-secure networking to UK networks and customers.

The power of quantum computing technology can challenge the security of any system reliant on certain mathematical algorithms, meaning it could undermine the security that blockchain promises. Quantum Key Distribution is the answer. This paper will explore the evolution of QKD, its future, and a real-world application research study with Toshiba, JPMorgan Chase and Ciena.

Today’s security challenges and tomorrow’s security fears are driving the adoption of reliable quantum cryptography solutions and services to enable better data security in a quantum age. Dr Andrew Shields contributes to this December 2018 edition of Scientific Computing World with an article examining the importance of technologies like QKD to the future of data security, and methods for putting quantum cryptography into practice.

Toshiba and BT Group winners of the UK-Japan Partnership category.

“We are honoured to be recognised alongside BT by the British Chamber of Commerce in Japan for more than 20 years of cooperation and research,” said Shunsuke Okada, Corporate Senior Vice President and Chief Digital Officer, Toshiba.

The centre will introduce and provide QKD solutions to commercial partners, researchers and government agencies.

The award recognises his pioneering research and development – spanning two decades – into quantum communication devices and systems

The collaboration furthers the global expansion of Toshiba’s QKD business in North America.
