Quantum session authentication and random number generation

A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12003628B2) discloses a method for session authentication using quantum technology. The method involves encoding circuitry in a first device selecting a set of quantum bases, generating qubits based on these bases, and transmitting them over a quantum line to decoding circuitry without revealing information about the bases used. The selection of quantum bases is done independently of the bases used by the decoding circuitry, enhancing security and reliability in the authentication process.

Furthermore, the method includes generating pseudorandom values to assist in selecting quantum bases, ensuring unpredictability and robustness in the authentication process. The apparatus for session authentication described in the patent includes encoding and decoding circuitry, along with random number generation and session authentication circuitry. The use of quantum technology, such as optical fibers or waveguides, in the authentication process adds an extra layer of security to safeguard sensitive information. Overall, the patent highlights an innovative approach to session authentication leveraging quantum principles for enhanced data protection and secure communication channels.
