Risk assessment approach to estimate security of cryptographic keys in quantum cryptography
Original language description
Increased interest in quantum cryptography is observed in recent years. Although this technique is characterized by a very high level of security, there are still challenges of quantum key distribution that should be solved. One of the most important problem remains security mechanisms for the key distillation process which can be effectively controlled by end users. This article presents a new idea for security assessment of cryptographic key based on the risk management in quantum cryptography. This proposal assumes the estimation of risk level using two components: likelihood and impact. The likelihood can be defined by the probability of eavesdropping during the quantum bit estimation. The impact is associated with the effect of key reduction in the all steps of key distillation process. Using this novel approach end users of quantum cryptography will be able to control both efficiency and security level of cryptographic keys. (C) Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020.
