Photonic Decoys and quantum cryptography
Photonic Decoys and quantum cryptography magnify

A University of Toronto professor and researcher has demonstrated for the first time a new technique for safeguarding data transmitted over fiber-optic networks using quantum cryptography.

Professor Hoi-Kwong Lo, a member of the school's Centre for Quantum Information and Quantum Control, is the senior author of a study that sheds light on using what's called a photonic decoy technique for encrypting data.

Quantum cryptography is starting to be used by the military, banks and other organizations that seek to better protect the data on their networks. This sort of cryptography uses photons to carry encryption keys, which is considered safer than protecting data via traditional methods that powerful computers can crack. Quantum cryptography is based on fundamental laws of physics, such that merely observing a quantum object alters it.

Lo's team used modified quantum key distribution equipment from Id Quantique and a 9.3-mile fiber-optic link to demonstrate the use of decoys in data transmissions and to alert receiving computers about which photons were legit and which were phony. The technique is designed to support high key generation rates over long distances.

Lo's study is slated to appear in the Feb. 24 issue of Physical Review Letters.

Lo notes that existing products, such as those from Id Quantique and MagiQ Technologies, are for point-to-point applications used by the military and security-sensitive businesses. "In the long run, one can envision a global quantum cryptographic network, either based on satellite relays or based on quantum repeaters," he says.

University researchers are fueling many advances in network security. A University of Indiana professor recently revealed technology for thwarting phishing and pharming culprits by using a technique called active cookies.

The truth about men…from a woman’s perspective

1. The nice men are ugly.

2. The handsome men are not nice.

3. The handsome and nice men are gay.

4. The handsome, nice and heterosexual men are married.

5. The men who are not so handsome, but are nice men, have no money.

6. The men who are not so handsome, but are nice men with money think we are only after their money.

7. The handsome men without money are after our money.

8. The handsome men, who are not so nice and somewhat heterosexual, don’t think we are beautiful enough.

9. The men who think we are beautiful, that are heterosexual, somewhat nice and have money, are cowards.

10.The men who are somewhat handsome, somewhat nice and have some money and thank God are heterosexual, are shy and NEVER make the first move!

11.The men who never make the first move, automatically lose interest in us when we take the initiative.

Who can possibly understand men?

Men are like a fine wine. They all start out like grapes, and it’s our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something you’d like to have dinner with.

BELIEFS MEN HAVE ABOUT WOMEN

A friend of mine sent this to me.

These are her views... 

Belief #1:
SHE’LL NEVER BE SATISFIED.
Truth:
Women are always looking for ways to make things better. Don’t take her suggestions as complaints or criticisms, but as her desire to make the relationship or situation the best that it can be.

Belief #2:
A STRONG, CONFIDENT WOMAN DOESN’T NEED A MAN TO TAKE CARE OF HER.
Truth:
Everyone loves to be taken care of and to feel needed. Even if a woman can fix things around the house or change the oil in her car, she will still ask for your help she can feel your strength, support and protection. Don’t ever stop asking, “What can I do for you? because it shows her that you care.

Belief #3:
WOMEN ONLY WANT TO CONTROL MEN.
Truth:
Its not about control; it’s about love. When a woman sees a man hurting, struggling or overwhelmed, goal is to help, not control. Let her give you a helping hand.

Belief #4:
KEEPING A WOMAN REQUIRES A LOT OF HARD WORK, TIME AND MONEY.
Truth:
A serious relationship requires time and effort to cultivate it. You shouldn’t look at it as a burden. Your wife or girlfriend will reciprocate the effort you into it.

Belief #5:
YOU CAN’T LIE TO WOMEN.
Truth:
Women are extremely capable of picking up moods attitudes and can easily read body language and facial expressions. Although you may think that you have gotten away with a great lie, she is either letting it slide because she wants to keep the peace, or she is lying herself because she’s afraid of the truth.

Belief #6:
JEALOUSY AND POSSESSIVENESS ARE A PART OF BEING A WOMAN.
Truth:
Women are protective of what belongs to them. They protect the things they value, especially when comes to relationships. It’s not that she doesn’t trust you; she is guarding the relationship. You are too precious to her for her to allow anything bad to happen.

Belief #7:
WOMEN ARE EMOTIONAL.
Truth:
Women don’t hide their feelings. They articulate what’s going on in their minds. There’s nothing wrong with emotions— we all have them. Being in touch with their emotions causes women to be sensitive and caring, and that’s why men love them.
