When tomorrow’s hackers bring quantum power, today’s video encryption might crumble—but FIU researchers have a solution. Their pioneering quantum-safe video encryption uses true quantum randomness to scramble each video frame, making them appear as noise to anyone without the right key. Even a peek triggers an alarm, and the video remains protected in transit using classic secure transmission systems like TLS.
This ingenious blend of quantum encryption and internet-grade security promises not only to safeguard livestreams and stored footage from future quantum attacks, but also to preserve authenticity—stopping prying, tampering, and malicious deepfakes in their tracks. Now, the team is working to scale their method for real-time video applications and integrate it with deepfake detection, aiming for seamless, trusted video protection in our increasingly digital world.
