How does the concept of composability contribute to the overall security of QKD protocols, and why is it significant for real-world applications?
Saturday, 15 June 2024 by EITCA Academy
The concept of composability in quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols is a cornerstone in ensuring the robustness and reliability of cryptographic systems. Composability refers to the property that individual cryptographic protocols maintain their security guarantees when combined with other protocols or when used as sub-protocols within larger systems. This is critical for QKD because it
