SK Telecom and KISTI have created a digital twin environment to simulate quantum key distribution (QKD) network conditions before physical deployment. This approach addresses the high cost and immutability of optical infrastructure by allowing rigorous testing of variables like distance and loss within a standardized, interoperable framework. The development marks a significant step toward scalable, real-world implementation of secure quantum communication networks.

Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — SK Telecom (CEO Jeong Jae-heon, CEO) news.sktelecom.com 22, said that in collaboration with the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI), the company has developed digital twin technology to verify performance and operability before actually establishing a quantum cryptographic communication network. The technology was unveiled at the European Conference […]

SK Telecom and KISTI developed a digital twin technology to simulate and verify quantum cryptographic communication network conditions before deploying physical QKD equipment. The system links SKT’s Kubernetes-based quantum key management system with KISTI’s QKD simulator through an ETSI standard-compatible interface. The companies said the setup can simulate factors such as communication distance, optical loss and equipment characteristics while supporting interoperability with QKD systems from other organizations.
