QuKee®

Managing Quantum Key Distribution networks with secure, interoperable and AI-driven key services

Download brochure
General Information

Quantum key distribution management system

QuKee®is a system for managing and distributing keys in quantum networks. It’s independent of the QKD provider and supports multiple vendors, offering centralized, policy-based management of multiple links that connect QKD modules with the key-consuming applications associated with those modules. 

Its interoperability is based on the ETSI QKD 020 protocol, the integration of HSMs through PKCS#11, and secure gRPC/TLS 1.3 communication between the systems and subsystems that make up the Key Management System. From a security perspective, the system includes secure key storage, quantum-safe mechanisms within the Key Manager functions, secure boot, role-based administration, and many other features. It also supports advanced capabilities such as AI integration and SLA-based policies to ensure efficient key delivery.

Characteristics

Features

Main features
  • Multi-vendor agnostic, supports QKD native systems through ETSI 014 / 004 or custom plugins upon agreement with QKD vendor.
  • Centralized policy driven. Policies are defined in the key manager central service component and delivered to the KMs associated to Tx(s) / Rx(s) in a seamless way.
  • The KM central service component can handle as many links as needed between KM associated with QKD modules, only constrained by deployment architecture limitations.
  • Deployment based on Linux OS and container technology with docker and docker compose.
  • Observability with OpenObserve and OpenTelemetry collector for enhanced real time monitoring.
  • Supports SNMPv3.
Interoperability
  • Inter KM communication between different QKD modules based on ETSI QKD 020 KM interoperability protocol.
  • Integration with HSM via PKCS#11.
  • All communications channels are based upon gRPC and secured through TLSv1.3.
Security
  • Full HSM integration for cryptographic engine and secure key storage.
  • Quantum safe involving hybrid key exchange between key managers following ETSI TS 103 744 specification document for KM internal data protection.
  • Internal PKI for securing internal subsystems communication channels and role management.
  • Secure self-booting system.
  • Role based administration.
Advanced capabilities
  • Integration with IA engines for improved behavior and support for system operators.
  • SLA policy driven to enforce compliance with key delivery service through multiple applications.
