Quantum Computing for Business
Privacy amplification is a technique used in quantum key distribution to enhance the security of a shared key by reducing the amount of information that an eavesdropper could potentially obtain. This process typically occurs after the initial key exchange and involves distilling a shorter, more secure key from a longer key that may contain some degree of information leakage. By applying privacy amplification, the remaining key becomes much less vulnerable to attacks, ensuring higher confidentiality and integrity in communications.
congrats on reading the definition of Privacy amplification. now let's actually learn it.
