Tehran-SANA
The head of the Iranian Atomic Energy Organization, Ali Akbar Salehi, announced the success of the "quantum" method of transmitting information in Iran.
Fars News Agency quoted Salehi as saying in a statement today on the sidelines of the ceremony of conducting the third test for transmitting quantum-style information between the Atomic Energy Organization and the Milad Tower in Tehran that the ability to send instantaneous encrypted quantum information has been available in the country, where the message concerned with the encrypted quantum key was sent to the intended location. .
Salehi expressed his hope that within a year or two, Iran would be able to achieve this technology through optical fibers from the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran in Tehran.
On the field of uses of this technology, Salehi explained that this technology is used to transmit information in encrypted form, including communications, defense, banking, medicine, computer, imaging, artificial intelligence, sensing tools, the atomic clock, radar, biology and environmental science.
Quantum encryption technology to transmit information in a secure manner through space is considered a promising future technology that provides a completely secure way to transmit information and it is impossible for any third party other than the receiver and the sender to obtain it by eavesdropping.
Quantum is a term used by the physicist Max Planck and through which he developed a complete theory known as quantum physics, and it is the smallest unit into which physical phenomena can be divided, and it refers in particular to the quantities of energy that are emitted sporadically and not continuously.
