The Ohio State University have achieved a groundbreaking milestone in quantum cybersecurity by establishing the first quantum key distribution (QKD) link

Researchers at The Ohio State University have achieved a groundbreaking milestone in quantum cybersecurity by establishing the first quantum key distribution (QKD) link on their Columbus campus. This connection uses in-ground optical fiber to securely transmit encryption keys between two buildings, marking a significant advancement in quantum network infrastructure.

New method (SmartAttack) uses ultrasonic transmissions to send stolen data from air-gapped systems to smartwatches.

A newly discovered cyberattack method, dubbed SmartAttack, leverages smartwatches and ultrasonic signals to steal data from air-gapped systems—computers physically isolated from external networks. Developed by researchers led by Mordechai Guri at Ben-Gurion University, this technique exploits smartwatch microphones to capture covert ultrasonic transmissions from compromised air-gapped machines.
