LSET’s Comprehensive Quantum Cryptography Specialist Course offers an in-depth exploration of secure communication in the quantum era. The course is designed to provide both foundational knowledge and hands-on experience, preparing you to protect sensitive information using cutting-edge cryptographic techniques. You will learn how to implement quantum key distribution, explore post-quantum encryption methods, and evaluate threats to existing security systems, equipping you with the tools to address tomorrow’s cybersecurity challenges.

Technologies Covered in This Course

OpenQKD Toolkit is a collection of tools and protocols for implementing and simulating quantum key distribution (QKD) in real or testbed environments.

SimulaQron is a quantum network simulator that allows developers to prototype and test distributed quantum applications and cryptographic protocols.

QuTiP (Quantum Toolbox in Python) provides simulation tools for quantum systems, enabling modelling and visualisation of secure quantum communication.

Python & NumPy are used throughout for building custom cryptographic simulations, analysing quantum data, and automating protocol testing.

Post-Quantum Cryptography Libraries such as Open Quantum Safe (liboqs) provide implementations of encryption schemes designed to resist quantum attacks.

BB84 Protocol is one of the foundational QKD schemes, used to securely distribute cryptographic keys based on quantum principles.

E91 Protocol is an entanglement-based QKD method that leverages quantum correlations for ultra-secure communication.

Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNGs) provide true randomness for cryptographic keys, improving entropy and enhancing security strength.
