Since 2022, following the request of a project leader, a team has been set up, based on the expertise of Philippe Bouyer and Philippe Gaborit. The objective is the creation of a startup developing hybrid quantum communication solutions combining QKD and PQC. 2 solutions will be proposed: a software solution based on “post-quantum” encryption that is more efficient than the state of the art and a “software + photonic hardware” solution for double protection. The project receives support from transfer and valorization companies from the universities of Bordeaux and Limoges (Aquitaine Science Transfer, Alienor Transfert and AVRUL).
