Imagine 23

On June, 15th, the team of QCI-CAT represented the project at the Imagine23 event with a strong support of the Austrian Federal Ministry for Climate Action, Environment, Energy, Mobility, Innovation and Technology (BMK), the organizers of this event, and the Austrian Research Promotion Agency. Imagine 23 showcases the outstanding projects and researchers we have in Austria in the field of digital technologies, bringing them to the forefront and fostering networking within the community.

At this meeting, the team had a lot of chances to interconnect and network with collegues throghout different innovative research fields and promote the idea of a Austrian QKD network. The Austrian Institute of Technology – QCI-CATs project coordinator – took this chance to present their self-built QKD links and QKD messaging application.

ABOUT QCI-CAT

Building on the long research experience of Austrian institutions in the field of quantum technologies, the project QCI-CAT aims at an adoption of modern encryption technology based on QKD for highly secure communication between public authorities.

QCI-CAT will investigate and verify new security applications for public authorities, such as secret sharing and message authentication.

Additionally, QCI-CAT will also leverage a research testbed for new technological approaches such as the combination of post-quantum encryption with QKD, long-distance QKD with secured trusted nodes and field trials of quantum repeaters.
