论文摘要
量子密钥分布于1984年初始化,是一种商业化的安全通信方法,它使两个当事方能够通过量子力学的性质生成共享的随机秘密密钥。我们提出了QQUIC(量子协助快速UDP Internet连接)传输协议,该协议通过在密钥交换阶段使用量子密钥分布而不是原始的经典算法来修改著名的Quic传输协议。得益于量子密钥分布的可证明的安全性,QQUIC密钥的安全性不取决于计算假设。也许令人惊讶的是,QQUIC甚至可以在某些情况下与Quic相比,可以减少网络延迟。为此,将附加的量子连接用作密钥生成的专用线。
Quantum key distribution, initialized in 1984, is a commercialized secure communication method which enables two parties to produce shared random secret key by the nature of quantum mechanics. We propose QQUIC (Quantum assisted Quick UDP Internet Connections) transport protocol, which modifies the famous QUIC transport protocol by employing the quantum key distribution instead of the original classical algorithms in the key exchanging stage. Thanks to the provable security of quantum key distribution, the security of QQUIC key does not depend on computational assumptions. Maybe surprisingly, QQUIC can reduce the network latency in some circumstance even comparing with QUIC. To achieve this, the attached quantum connections are used as the dedicated lines for key generation.
