The EU has launched the Nostradamus project, aiming to enable high-level cybersecurity with quantum tech. Led by Deutsche Telekom, Nostradamus is an industry consortium, including academia and companies such as Thales and the AIT Austrian Institute of Technology. Its mission is to help create a network of quantum-safe communications. Specifically, the consortium plans to build testing infrastructure for quantum key distribution (QKD) and evaluate QKD devices of European manufacturers. Quantum key distribution has emerged as a fundamentally secure method of communication and data transfer. That’s because it uses quantum light particles to generate random keys for encrypting and decrypting data…
