• Resumen

  • Focuses on the release of a cryptography system that uses quantum mechanics by MagiQ Technologies. In the 1980s theorists proposed that a stream of photons could create unbreakable keys. According to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, if an eavesdropper attempted to observe the photons, that act would alter the key, making it impossible to steal. it was then that MagiQ began selling its Navajo Secure Gateway, calling it the first commercial quantum-key distribution system. This past July, MagiQ unveiled an update, QPN 5505; id Quantique SA and NEC are also offering quantum encryption.
