Trapping an easvesdropper using localized optoacoustic detection

Our new work on "Eavesdropper localization for quantum and classical channels via nonlinear scattering" is on the arXiv!

Abstract:

Optical fiber networks are part of important critical infrastructure and known to be prone to eavesdropping attacks. Hence cryptographic methods have to be used to…
