ID Quantique, based in Geneva Switzerland, is an innovative and fast-growing company active in the field of high-speed network encryption and quantum key distribution. Within the framework of an FP7 research project, ID Quantique is opening a Postdoc Position in Information Security.

Quantum Key Distribution is a technology that exploits the laws of quantum physics to guarantee the security of communications across optical networks. ID Quantique played a prominent role in the development of this technology and was the first vendor to bring a product to market. It is now carrying out an EU funded research project to conduct a rigorous and in-depth analysis of the security of Quantum Key Distribution technology in view of achieving standardized information assurance.

ID Quantique is seeking to hire a Postdoc who will carry out research on methods for the design and analysis of security of quantum key distribution systems.
