This project aims to address the security vulnerabilities of online data transmission. Cyber attacks and data stealing are threatening the daily operations of public and private organisations worldwide, and the privacy of individuals. This project expect to realise the key element for a new global network architecture where security is guaranteed by the fundamental laws of physics. This element is the quantum node and it will be implemented through the development of new techniques for the control and manipulation of individual atoms and innovative integrated optical devices for the interface with fibre networks. The development of this technology will lead to intrinsically secure online communication for organisations in the health and defence sectors and private individuals worldwide.

该项目旨在解决在线数据传输的安全漏洞。网络攻击和数据窃取正在威胁全球公共和私人组织的日常运营以及个人隐私。该项目期望实现新的全球网络架构的关键要素，其中安全性由基本物理定律保证。该元件是量子节点，它将通过开发用于控制和操纵单个原子的新技术以及用于与光纤网络接口的创新集成光学器件来实现。这项技术的发展将为世界各地的卫生和国防部门组织以及个人带来本质上安全的在线通信。
