Welcome to AliroNet Quickstart: Empowering Quantum Networks with Entanglement
Aliro has launched a groundbreaking product, AliroNet Quickstart, aimed at simplifying the implementation of entanglement-based quantum networks. This bundled solution combines cutting-edge hardware for quantum network deployment with advanced software for network orchestration, control, and data operation.
The primary objective of AliroNet Quickstart is to enable a wide range of applications, including entanglement-based key distribution, interconnecting quantum processors, and linking distributed quantum sensors.
One of the key features of AliroNet Quickstart is its emphasis on security. By leveraging entanglement, the system offers a quantum-safe method for generating shared encryption keys, eliminating the vulnerabilities associated with traditional public key exchanges. Additionally, it seamlessly integrates with post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to provide a robust security framework.
This versatile product can be configured for production, pilot, or testbed environments and supports various physical-layer hardware necessary for creating and measuring entangled photons. Initially available for fiber optic connectivity with options for 810 nm and 1510 nm wavelengths, Aliro plans to introduce a version that supports free-space connectivity.
AliroNet Quickstart is designed to operate at room temperature and seamlessly integrates with existing classical network infrastructure, catering to industries such as telecommunications, utilities, and research. It serves as a valuable tool for organizations looking to experiment, validate, and deploy secure quantum networks.
