Software

Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) hardware provides cryptographic keys that can be used to secure confidential data. This software allows to request keys exchanged using QKD from QKD hardware or a Key Management System by following the ETSI GS QKD 014 standard. It is then up to the user of this library to use these keys to encrypt data. This software can be used as a command-line program or as a library from either Rust or C code.
