“…Other researchers focus on considering the receiver measurement device, not only the detectors, as an uncharacterized device. They are called either 1SDI-QKD [33,5,7], which stands for one-sided-device-independent, RDI-QKD [15], which stands for receiver-device-independent. Xin et al (2020) recently published a 1SDI-QKD scheme [33].…”

Quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols are unconditionally secure, providing that quantum devices are truthful. Device-independent quantum key distribution (DI-QKD) protocols offer the prospect of distributing secret keys with minimal assumptions. The DI-QKD protocols are hard to implement using the current technologies as they require all the quantum devices to be uncharacterized. Measurement device independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) protocols assume that the measurement devices are not truthful; the adversary might make them. MDI-QKD is secure but more challenging to implement. Receiver-device-independent quantum key distribution (RDI-QKD) protocols assume that the receiver's measurement devices can be viewed as a black box while the sender's device can be trusted. RDI-QKD relies on reasonable assumptions that make it easy to implement using the current state-of-the-art technology. We propose an RDI-QKD protocol, called DGL22. DGL22 is secure against all known attacks that are allowed by quantum mechanics. DGL22 provides several benefits over previous protocols, including the capability to attain high communication and sifting efficiency.

“…Therefore, a lot of researchers and companies have been devoting themselves to the research and development of QKD. Accordingly, QKD has received a great many achievements in both theoretical and experimental aspects over the past three decades [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] . Quantum secret sharing (QSS), another significant branch of quantum cryptography, is the extended pattern of classical secret sharing [11,12] and QKD.…”

A universal and general quantum simultaneous secret distribution (QSSD) protocol is put forward based on the properties of the one-dimensional high-level cluster states, in which one sender dispatches different high-level classical secret messages to many users at the same time. Due to the idea of quantum dense coding, the sender can send different two-dit classical messages (two d-level classical numbers) to different receivers simultaneously by using a one-dimensional d-level cluster state, which means that the information capacity is up to the maximal. To estimate the security of quantum channels, a new eavesdropping check strategy is put forward. Meanwhile, a new attack model, the general individual attack is proposed and analyzed. It is shown that the new eavesdropping check strategy can effectively prevent the traditional attacks including the general individual attack. In addition, multiparty quantum secret report (MQSR, the same as quantum simultaneous secret submission (QSSS)) in which different users submit their different messages to one user simultaneously can be gotten if the QSSD protocol is changed a little.

Bell‐GHZ Measurement‐Device‐Independent Quantum Key Distribution

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In this work, a one‐sided measurement‐device‐independent quantum key distribution protocol that uses Bell and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) states is proposed. The protocol considers three parties: Alice and Bob, who will share the key at the end of the protocol; and Charlie, who plays the role of facilitating the key distribution without having access to the key itself. Alice and Charlie are trusted users, while Bob is uncharacterized. The protocol is asymmetrical, meaning that Alice sends one qubit while Bob sends two; this allows Bob to identify himself via a previously assigned ID; if this authentication fails, the key distribution also will.
