Polish scientists launched encryption systems resistant to hacker attacks

14.05.2021

Researchers from the University of Warsaw (UW) and the Poznań Supercomputing and Networking Center have launched two ultra – modern information encryption systems resistant to any hacker attacks.  

The QKD technique used for encryption, thanks to the use of principles of quantum mechanics, makes it impossible to intercept the sent messages.

It is a technique used to encrypt information based on the principles of quantum mechanics, which makes it impossible to intercept messages sent in this way without alerting the parties that make up the cryptographic key. The work is carried out as part of the NLPQT project – National Laboratory for Photonics and Quantum Technologies, which brings together seven of the best scientific research units in Poland. The consortium leader is the Faculty of Physics of the University of Warsaw.
