Practical Security Considerations for Quantum Secure Satellite Communications
Dr Agnes Ferenczi
Research Project Lead Quantum Communication
Agnes studied theoretical physics at the Institute for Quantum Computing in Waterloo, Canada with a Ph.D. thesis on Security proof methods for quantum key distribution protocols under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Norbert Lütkenhaus.
After her studies, she pursued a career in data science, data architecture and machine learning in industry, where she created natural language processing models to production for large websites with user-generated content. Using her software experience, she moved to research in quantum key distribution at DLR Oberpfaffenhofen at the Institute for Communications and Navigation, to lead a software team implementing quantum key distribution satellite missions. She is passionate about harnessing the power of quantum physics for an improved security in the digital world.
