	CORDIS: Austrian Council presidency: Showcases: SECOQC - 'Development of a Global Network for Secure Communication ...
		SECOQC will lay the cornerstone for a global high-security communications network by advancing experimental quantum technology research and connecting it with cryptography, network technology, and other IT related disciplines.
		Within SECOQC the basis will be laid for a long-range high security communication network that combines the entirely novel technology of quantum key distribution with components of classical computer science and cryptography.
		The work within SECOQC will be carried out in two main activity blocks - one covering the quantum physical devices, the other dealing with the design and set-up of the infrastructure - covering the topics of security, communication networks, system integration and user requirements.

	KTH in your Pocket: Development of a global network for secure communications based on quantum cryptography - SECOQC (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		On the other hand, with quantum cryptography a technology has been developed within the last decade that is provably secure against arbitrary computing power, and even against quantum computer attacks.
		The vision of SECOQC is to provide European citizens, companies and institutions with a tool that allows facing the threats of future interception technologies.
		The role of KTH in SECOQC is to work on the possible second-generation quantum cryptography systems, which are based on so-called quantum correlated (entangled) light produced in non-linear optical processes.

		The new system, known as SECOQC (Secure Communication based on Quantum Cryptography), is intended for use by the secure generation and exchange of encryption keys, rather than for the actual exchange of data, Monyk said.
		In 18 months project participants will assess progress on a number of alternative solutions and decide which technologies are the most promising and merit further development, project coordinators said.
		SECOQC aims to have a workable technology ready in four years, but will probably require three to four years of work beyond that before commercial use, Monyk said.
