Cyprus Proves Quantum Security is Within Reach

A quantum network deployed in Nicosia utilizes existing fiber infrastructure to connect four nodes-N1 through N4-with each link segment relying on paired dark fibers of varying lengths, and circulators at each node and optical distribution frame directing quantum signals between transmitters and receivers to establish communication channels.

A functional four-node quantum key distribution network has been successfully deployed using existing underground optical fibre in Cyprus, demonstrating the practical viability of integrating quantum cryptography into current telecommunications infrastructure.

Can AI Crack Cryptography?

A new dataset is challenging large language models to move beyond conceptual understanding and tackle the rigorous demands of cryptographic problem-solving.
