Trial Conducted By DRDO

In December 2020, DRDO of India conducted successful trials of QKD to showcase secure communication. The Quantum-based security solution against eavesdropping was validated at a 12-km range and 10 dB reduction over the fibre optic channel.

The development of such an incredible technology is indeed a remarkable achievement.However,the said technology is miles away from seeing widespread usage across the globe.A crucial reason behind this anomaly is the lack of exploration and knowledge regarding the depths of Qalong with the absence of required tools to perform the above-mentioned exploration.
