EU Commissions Nostradamus Project for Quantum Testing

By

The project paves the way for implementing quantum networking technology.

The European Union (EU) has commissioned the Nostradamus consortium to create infrastructure for testing quantum key distribution (QKD), reports Nancy Liu.

“This latest quantum push from the EU aims to pave the way for developing and implementing the European Quantum Communication Infrastructure (EuroQCI), a secure pan-European communication network based on quantum technology,” Liu says.

The EuroQCI, in turn, aims to “reinforce the protection of Europe’s governmental institutions, their data centers, hospitals, energy grids, and more, becoming one of the main pillars of the EU’s Cybersecurity Strategy for the coming decades,” according to the European Commission.
