Quantum Key Distribution and the Future of Encryption

By Konstantinos Karagiannis

Quantum computing will bring tumultuous change to the world of information security in the coming decade. As multi-qubit systems use quantum algorithms to slice through even 4096-bit PK encryption in seconds, new Quantum Encryption will be required to ensure data security. Join Konstantinos for a look at real world experiments in Quantum Key Distribution that BT and partners have recently performed that show what the future of encryption will look like. Remember the panic after Heartbleed when SOME passwords needed to be changed? Imagine a day when ALL communications are at risk of eavesdropping via Quantum Computers - a day when only new systems that exploit the weirdness of quantum mechanics can ensure privacy.

If you can't clone data, will this mean everything must be read-only? How will we do backups?

I liked that the audience asked the same question that come into my mind so I didn't have to stay confused.

The universe knows if you're looking.... *MIND FUCKING BLOWN* UNIVERSE IS GOD*

He is just telling this will happen, that will happen. But never say how?

Particles don't just behave as waves... They ARE waves. See Tesla's theory of Dynamic Gravity and the Electromagnetic universe with included Aether theory.

For those ignorant of Aether, see: Nature Magazine, Vol. 322, pg. 590 for a peer-reviewed proof of Aether's existence.

There is no such thing as a particle. There is only universal electromagnetic forces and their effects upon one another based on natural frequencies.
