Objectives

  • To establish a QKD node at ERNET @ IITM-RP to join the MAQAN metro area quantum network that is being deployed between IITM/SETS/ERNET/NIC

  • To demonstrate Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack scenarios

  • To develop SDN enabled path control in dynamically choosing alternate Quantum Secured Paths for the QKD against emulated DDoS attacks when QBER (>20%) and SKR falls below acceptable threshold (<10Kbps)

Deliverables

D1. QKD Network Testbed supporting DDoS attacks (QBER >20%, SKR <10 Kbps)  (Q1-Q3)

(TRL 6)

D2. SDN enabled QKD Network path control manager provisioning new secured optical path   (Q3-Q6)  (TRL 6)

D3. SDN Software Framework for QKD network monitoring & management (Q5-Q8)

(TRL 6)

D4. Participation / Contribution report in SDOs. (Q7-Q8)
