The infrastructure will be able to connect numerous customers across London, helping them to secure the transmission of valuable data and information between multiple physical locations over standard fiber optic links using quantum key distribution (QKD). QKD is an important technology, playing a fundamental role in protecting networks and data against the emerging threat of cyber-attack using quantum computing. The London network represents a critical step towards reaching the <a href=\"https:\/\/uknqt.ukri.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UKNQTP-Strategic-Intent-2020.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">UK government\u2019s strategy to become a quantum-enabled economy<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The network\u2019s first commercial customer, EY, will use the network to connect two of its sites in London, one in Canary Wharf, and one near London Bridge. It will demonstrate how data secured using QKD can move between sites and will showcase the benefits this network brings to its own customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BT and Toshiba <a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.bt.com\/bt-and-toshiba-to-build-worlds-first-commercial-quantum-secured-metro-network-across-london\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">announced their commitment to<\/span> <\/a>creating a trial network in October 2021. BT will operate the network, providing a range of quantum-secured services including dedicated high bandwidth end-to-end encrypted links, delivered over Openreach\u2019s private fiber networks, while Toshiba will provide quantum key distribution hardware and key management software. In the network, QKD keys will be combined with the in-built ethernet security, based on\u202fpublic-key based encryption, which will enable the resultant keys to be used to encrypt the data.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>George Freeman, Minister for Science, Research and Innovation, HM Government, commented: \u201cI am very pleased to see the first trial by BT and Toshiba of a commercial quantum secured metro network, which represents significant progress towards achieving our ambition to make the UK a quantum-enabled economy. This is the kind of innovation that helps cement the UK as a global innovation economy in the vanguard of discovering, developing and commercially adopting transformational technology with real societal benefits.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Howard Watson, Chief Technology Officer, BT, commented: \u201cQuantum-enabled technologies are expected to have a profound impact on how society and business operates in the future, but they are remarkably complex to understand, develop and build: in particular, ensuring that the end-to-end service designs meet the stringent security requirements of the market. I\u2019m incredibly proud that BT and Toshiba have successfully united to deliver this unique network, and with EY as our first trial customer, we are paving the way for further commercial explorations for quantum technologies and their use in commercial, and societal applications in the future.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shunsuke Okada,\u202fCorporate Senior Vice President and Chief Digital Officer of Toshiba commented: \u201cBoth Toshiba and BT have demonstrated world-class technology development and leadership through decades of innovation and operation. Combining BT\u2019s leadership in networks technologies and Toshiba\u2019s leadership in quantum technologies has brought this network to life, allowing businesses across London to benefit from quantum secured communications for the first time.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Preparation, technical deployment and testing for the network commenced in late 2021. This included equipment deployment in racks, adding security systems and resilience testing, and finally running and optimizing the network. While Tuesday 26<sup>th<\/sup> April marked the official launch of the network, it has been running since early April, and will operate for an initial period of up to three years.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Praveen Shankar, EY UK &amp; Ireland Managing Partner for Technology, Media and Telecoms (TMT), commented: \u201cQuantum technology creates new and significant opportunities for business, but presents potential risks. Quantum secure data transmission represents the next major leap forward in protecting data, an essential component of doing business in a digital economy. Our work with two of the world\u2019s leading technology innovators will allow us to demonstrate the power of quantum to both EY and our clients.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The UK Government\u2019s \u201cstrategic intent\u201d to develop a quantum-enabled economy was first published in 2020. It sets out a vision for the next 10 years in which quantum technologies will become an integral part of the UK\u2019s digital backbone, unlock innovation to drive growth and help build a thriving and resilient economy, and contribute significant value to the UK\u2019s prosperity and security.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The London network represents an important step to building a national network for quantum secured communications, which will stimulate the growth of a quantum ready economy in the UK.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Howard Watson continued: \u201cThis is a significant moment in the UK\u2019s journey towards a quantum-enabled economy, but we\u2019re not there yet. Further investment commitments will be required to broaden the study of quantum technologies that will contribute to this new economy, including quantum computing, quantum cryptography and quantum communications. We look forward to working with our government and industry partners to continue the momentum BT has started and shaping the UK\u2019s quantum strategy.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The technical collaboration for this network was conducted in BT\u2019s Adastral Park labs in Suffolk, UK, and the Quantum technology Business Division of Toshiba, based in Tokyo, Japan and Cambridge, UK, where the quantum key distribution technology has been developed and is manufactured.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ENDS&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Contacts<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BT:<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CCgroup: Adam Millar or Duncan McKean&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>+44 (0)7854 986850&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>+44 (0)7500 875614&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"mailto:BTtech@ccgrouppr.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">BTtech@ccgrouppr.com<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Toshiba:&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Matt McDowell, Head of Communications, Toshiba Europe Ltd.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"mailto:Toshiba@nelsonbostock.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Toshiba@nelsonbostock.com<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>+44 (0)7815542404&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>EY:<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Annabel Banks, EY UKI Media Relations&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>0207 951 7290, 07387 539018&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"mailto:Annabel.banks@uk.ey.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Annabel.banks@uk.ey.com<\/a>&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About BT<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BT Group is the UK\u2019s leading telecommunications and network provider and a leading provider of global communications services and solutions, serving customers in 180 countries.
