UKTIN member Quantum Dice is leveraging its patented source-device independent self-certification (DISC™) protocol to develop the world’s first compact, high-speed, and continuously self-certifying quantum random number generator (QRNG).
This technology, which harnesses quantum processes to produce verifiably secure random numbers, is suitable for use across applications ranging from protecting terrestrial networks to providing quantum-secure entropy for satellite and IoT systems.
The University of Oxford spin-out has announced it is working with BT Group to explore how its Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) can be used for cryptographic applications in the telecommunications sector.
BT Group’s Research and Development team will be using Quantum Dice’s novel VERTEX QD-1100 device to assess its long-term performance, overall reliability, and hardware integration whilst also exploring how they can leverage the PCIe card’s self-certification capability as a trusted entropy source for security applications.
