Quantum Key Distribution: from physics to commercialisation

Presented by Andrew Lord, BT

I will outline the threat to security from quantum computers and introduce the quantum solution known as Quantum Key Distribution or QKD. I will show how huge strides have been made in the last 8 years to bring QKD to the point of industrialisation, and will describe examples from the ongoing BT quantum project. Finally I will explore the remaining challenges for this exciting technology.
