Quantum computing represents an emerging threat to the public key infrastructure underlying transport layer security (TLS) widely used in the Internet. This paper describes how QKD symmetric keys can be used with TLS to provide quantum computing resistant security for existing Internet applications. We also implement and test a general hybrid key delivery architecture with QKD over long distance fibers between secure sites, and wireless key distribution over short distance within each site Finally we show how this same capability can be extended to a TLS cipher scheme with perfect security.

量子安全互联网传输

量子计算代表了对互联网中广泛使用的传输层安全 (TLS) 底层公钥基础设施的新兴威胁。本文描述了 QKD 对称密钥如何与 TLS 一起使用，为现有的互联网应用程序提供抗量子计算的安全性。我们还在安全站点之间的长距离光纤上实现并测试了具有 QKD 的通用混合密钥交付架构，以及每个站点内短距离的无线密钥分发。最后，我们展示了如何将相同的功能扩展到具有完美安全性的 TLS 密码方案。
