----BBN Technologies,
an advanced technology and research and development firm, announced
today
that the world's first operational quantum cryptography
network--funded by the Department of Defense
's Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency (DARPA)--has now expanded to include its
first free
space link, enabling quantum keys or communications to be
transmitted securely through the air as
well as through its existing
fiber-based network under the streets of Cambridge, Mass. Although this
method can provide high levels of security, it is not infallible. A quantum encryption system offers
a
completely different approach that relies on quantum physics, making
it virtually hacker-proof
and considered to be the most secure method
of transmitting information.
Known for pioneering
the development of the ARPANET, the
forerunner of the Internet, BBN continues to create advances
in
Internet and networking technologies through its work on ad-hoc
networking, the semantic web
, quantum communications, and advanced
protocols. The
'plurality of terms' along with the taxonomy
of all the associated words are
used to define and uniquely classify the particular subject.arguably collini

"Linking
QinetiQ's free space technology
into BBN Technologies' existing network is the critical first step
toward global networks protected by quantum cryptography.
