“…Other approaches and models in using QKD in network fashion are introduced in the literature as [20][21][22][23]. For example, in the paper [21], the authors describe how the ATM (Aeronautical Telecommunication Network) can be secured by QKD, either by optical fiber or free air.…”

implemented technologies. Some research is in progress for the integration of QKD with the protocols in different layers of OSI model. The examples of such research effort are the integration of QKD in point-to-point protocol (PPP) OSI layer 2 and the integration of QKD with IPSEC at OSI layer-3. All these works are moving towards the utilization of QKD technology for enhancing the security of modern computing applications on the internet. In this paper, we present a novel extension of the TLS protocol based on QKD. We introduce a scheme for integrating QuantumCryptography in this protocol. Our approach improves the security of the process of authentication and data encryption. Also, we describe an example to illustrate the feasibility of our scheme's implementation.

“…Other approaches and models equipped with QKD in network fashion are introduced in the literature as [15][16]. A different approach that this paper deals with is using QKD in existing protocols, which are widely used on the Internet to enhance security with main objective of unconditional security.…”
