In the currently early stages of Quantum Information Science, it is not always clear what the best way to physically implement a particular algorithm or protocol is. In this project the student will make use of a linear optical simulator to explore photonic implementations of a quantum algorithms for cyber security. In particular, they work on an implementation of a quantum approach to remote memory attestation.
