"Entangled photons help bug-proof communication"

As the processing power of computers increases, the less difficult it becomes to decode encrypted data. The full development and implementation of quantum computing can, in fact, deem current encryption algorithms obsolete due to the faster and more advanced decryption that is expected to come with quantum computing. Therefore, researchers at the Fraunhofer IOF are looking to encryption based on the physical principle of entangled photons, which could serve to further protect communication between the sender and receiver, from the eavesdropping or interception of listeners. This article further discusses the concept of quantum entanglement of photons and how this could advance the encryption of communication.
