Operation co-funded by EU cohesion policy (European Regional Development Fund (ERDF)) under the programme ?l?skie Voivodeship - ERDF/ESF (2014PL16M2OP012), managing authority: Zarząd Województwa Śląskiego, Urząd Marszałkowski Województwa Śląskiego. The source names no beneficiary for this operation. Location: Bytomski (NUTS PL228); Poland. Budget: total eligible expenditure EUR 886,004.84; EU co-financing EUR 690,549 (co-financing rate 77.94%), as stated by the source. Runs 2019-04-01 to 2021-09-30. Source: Kohesio, EU cohesion policy projects managed by national and regional authorities (not CORDIS); selected because its title uses a quantum word. Summary from Kohesio (English machine translation by the source): The project’s task is to create a encryption system that responds to modern cyber security challenges, and this system will be characterised by maximum versatility, so that it can be used both in complex computer networks and in IoT modules. The design solution will have the following advantages: + possibility of implementation in a single integrated circuit, in any of the selected implementation technologies, + resistance to cryptanalysis (also using quantum computers), + the possibility of single-unambiguous identification of the sender of messages, + use of disposable keys with hidden public key component, + small size of encryption keys, + block transfer or storage of encrypted data (which is an innovation on a global scale). In order to ensure the technological independence of the solution, the system will be equipped with its own, technologically independent, command-based control processor.
