Frequently Asked Questions

QKD is a Technical Committee within the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). It is named "Quantum Key Distribution". This committee has published 16 standards.

QKD develops ETSI standards in the area of Information technology. Currently, there are 16 published standards from this technical committee.

The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) is an independent, not-for-profit standardization organization in the telecommunications industry. ETSI produces globally applicable standards for information and communications technologies (ICT), including fixed, mobile, radio, broadcast, and internet technologies.

A Technical Committee (TC) in ETSI is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.

Quantum Key Distribution (QKD); Vocabulary

Quantum cryptography is a brand new domain for most of the people who will use this technology in the close future. Coming from fundamental researchs, the QKD concepts carry a lot of confusions, bringing ambigous thoughts and misunderstandings and, at the end, making it quite difficult to explain and convince people not being familiar with them. Finally this fact has a strong negative impact on the general understanding of the QKD topic at this stage.  The scope of this new Working Item proposal is to properly define all the vocabulary describing the concepts, the metrics, the labels and all the related items used on a daily basis by everybody working in the QKD domain. It has to bring  also an official clarification  to some definitions/concepts conveniently borrowed and adapted from the cryptographic world.  This work will give the capacity to the QKD ISG, and to the QKD related industry,  to make a clear statement on how the QKD technology can be positionned and/or evaluated in the current actual operationnal world.  This away a future user/customer of this technology could use it as a strong official reference.
