Objective §� Create a prototype unconditionally secure <strong>NASA</strong> communications network, spanning terrestrial and Space links … §� …such that security is guaranteed regardless of an adversary’s ú� Computing power ú� Mathematical genius ú� Cryptanalytic sophistication §� Use keys to protect both data in transit and data at rest
Impact if Successful §� Guarantees confidentiality in sharing of ITAR and export controlled data between centers & s/c §� Decreases vulnerability of Space assets such as satellites, telescopes, Space-‐stations, fuel-‐ stores, interferometers, to “spoofed” commands §� Enhances safety of astronauts during missions §� No further upgrades will ever be necessary due to security concerns ú� Only optional upgrades for higher speeds if desired §� Extensible to microwave wavelengths [1] §� Proof of security established [1] Preliminary work on extension to microwave wavelengths is reported in Christian Weedbrook, Stefano Pirandola, Seth Lloyd, and Timothy C. Ralph, “<strong>Quantum</strong> Cryptography Approaching the Classical Limit”, Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 110501 (2010)
