CERIDES wishes to warmly congratulate a prominent member of its team, Dr. Konstantinos Katzis, Associate Professor of Computer Engineering & Telecommunications at European University Cyprus, who has been appointed as the Cyprus government representative in the European Union for the Quantum Communications Infrastructure – QCI Initiative.
The aim of the QCI initiative is to build a quantum secure communication shield across the EU that would protect our economy and society from cyber threats. The QCI’s main function will be to allow quantum key distribution, an ultra-secure form of encryption. A combination of terrestrial and space implementation of quantum-based communication infrastructure can guarantee security of digital transactions over short and long distances covering both the EU and other continents.
