Leveraging Quantum Key Distribution for Securing MACsec Communications
Dmitry Lyssenko, Olufemi Komolafe · 2023
Somewhat ironically, advances in quantum computing are both the cause of, and solution to, the observation that the dependence of public-key cryptography (that underpins much of today's network security) on the intractability of particular mathematical problems may not be future-proof. Since quantum computing rests upon the inviolability of the laws of quantum physics, network security approaches based on quantum computing ought to be more durable.
