What is Quantum Key Distribution (QKD)?

● QKD is primarily a mechanism to undertake secure communication, which utilises a cryptographic protocol involving various components of quantum mechanics.

● The technology enables two communicating sides to come up with random secret keys shared by both of them and known exclusively to them, so only they can use it to encrypt and decrypt messages, thus achieving a very highly secure communication.

Why in the News? DRDO and IIT Delhi has successfully demonstrated the Quantum Key Distribution(QKD) link between Prayagraj and Vindhyachal in Uttar Pradesh, a distance of more than 100 kilometres.

What is SWIFT?
SWIFT stands for the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications

β€’ The SWIFT is a global member-owned cooperative that is headquartered in Brussels, Belgium.
β€’ It was founded in 1973 by a group of 239 banks from 15 countries which formed a co-operative utility to develop a secure electronic messaging service and common standards to facilitate cross-border payments.


SWIFT
does not facilitate funds transfer: rather, it sends payment orders, which must be settled by
correspondent accounts that the institutions have with each other.
β€’ The SWIFT is a secure financial message carrier β€” in other words, it transports messages from one bank
to its intended bank recipient.
