Quantum Security for Classical ComputersEvelyn Krivorotova | Patrick Leggett | Wildenslo Osias


● Preparing and Interpreting a problem to be solved by quantum computing using classical methods

● Conducting hands-on exercises using Network Miner, IBM Q Experience, Qiskit Aqua and the Falcon Sandbox API to demonstrate how quantum computing will impact forensics

Project Overview


What is Quantum Computing ?● Quantum Computer vs Classical Computer● Classical bit vs Qubit● Superposition & Entanglement


Literature Review • Quantum Computing, 2001

• Cryptographic distinguishability measures for quantum-mechanical states, 1999

• Quantum Algorithm Implementation for Beginners, 2018

• Stability of Grover’s algorithm in respect to perturbations in quantum circuit, 2017


Quantum Algorithms

● Shor’s Algorithm - quantum algorithm for integer factorization

● Grover’s Algorithm - quantum algorithm that finds with high probability the unique input to a black box function that produces a particular output value

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_box


Project Requirements● IBM Q Experience - cloud service that that gives users in

the general public access to a set of IBM's prototype quantum processors

● Qiskit/Qiskit Aqua - an open-source quantum computing software development framework. Qiskit Aqua is a library of quantum algorithms

● Falcon Sandbox Public API - open and free API that can be used to submit files/URLs for analysis, pull report data, but also perform advanced search queries

● Network Miner - open source forensic analysis tool


Example of Qiskit Entire Workflow


IBM Q Experience / Qiskit

• Qiskit - Initial Installation

– Anaconda Prompt– Pip– API Token


Circuit Composer

• Ibmqx4 5-qubit computer• How does Grover’s Algorithm apply?• Building the circuit


Qiskit & Qiskit Aqua • Qiskit (Powered by Jupyter) • QASM• Qiskit Aqua


Qiskit Pseudocode Executing Satisfiability Problem


Preliminary Findings:● 3-SAT probabilities ● 5-SAT probabilities would run slightly lower● Current systems can not carry all gates/device

strings

Future Work:● Building a system to perform computation tasks

before decohering● New components for Qiskit Aqua

Preliminary Findings & Future Work


● Thank you!
