At present our data are encrypted with mathe­matical methods that rely on the idea that the factorization of large numbers is a difficult task. With the increasing power of quantum computers, however, these mathematical codes will probably no longer be secure in the future. Tobias Vogl, Quantum Communi­cation Systems Engineering at the Technical University of Munich, and his team are working on an encryption process that relies on principles of physics. “Security will be based on the information being encoded into individual light particles and then transmitted. The laws of physics do not permit this information to be extracted or copied. When the information is inter­cepted, the light particles change their characteristics. Because we can measure these state changes, any attempt to intercept the transmitted data will be recognized imme­diately, regardless of future advances in technology,” says Vogl.
