Quantum Encryption (specifically Quantum Key Distribution or QKD) uses the principles of quantum mechanics to secure data.
Core Technology: It relies on the physics of photons. If a third party attempts to eavesdrop on the transmission, the quantum state of the photons changes, immediately alerting the senders.
Unbreakable Security: Unlike traditional math-based encryption, quantum encryption is theoretically “unhackable” by conventional or quantum computers because it is protected by the laws of physics.
Implementation: SMSE focuses on integrating these quantum-ready protocols into existing fiber-optic and satellite communication systems.
