QuantumMessenger

Pilot project for an instant messaging service that utilizes quantum key distribution for end-to-end encryption. A deployed version can be viewd here.

Goals

  • Create a backend in Python using FastAPI and Qiskit
    • Implement quantum random number generation to produce initial keys
    • Implement the BB84 protocol for quantum key distribution to share a key between users
  • Create a front-end in TypeScript with React
    • Communicate between client and API to send messages
    • Implement a user authentication scheme

Possible Additions (time permitting)

  • Create an eavesdropper interface where users can simulate intercepting a message
  • Implement multiple channels with user permissions
