Description: DRDO Completes Military Trials of Quantum-Secure Communication System India’s Defence Research and Development Organisation has completed military field trials of an indigenously developed, fibre-based Quantum Key Distribution system designed to protect sensitive communications from interception. The technology was developed by DRDO in partnership with Bengaluru-based Taqbit Labs. According to the defence organisation, laboratory research and experience from earlier demonstrations were used to convert the system into a scalable product suitable for deployment in strategic networks. Quantum Key Distribution, commonly called QKD, allows two authorised locations to create and exchange encryption keys using individual particles of light. If an attacker attempts to measure or intercept the quantum transmission, the disturbance can be detected. The affected key can then be rejected before confidential information is exchanged. The technology does not transmit ordinary data magically or make every connected computer impossible to hack. Instead, it strengthens the process used to distribute cryptographic keys. End devices, software and trusted network nodes must still be protected through conventional cybersecurity. DRDO said the successful military trials could provide the foundation for larger, multi-hop quantum networks connecting several defence locations. Such systems may eventually protect communications involving command centres, military installations and other critical national infrastructure. The DRDO project should also be distinguished from the separate 1,000-kilometre quantum-communication network demonstrated under India’s National Quantum Mission. Together, these programmes represent different parts of India’s effort to prepare communication systems for future cyber threats, including powerful quantum computers capable of challenging some existing encryption methods.
