In addition to removing trust barriers and multi-party friction and bottlenecks, Chronicled's technical pilot represents the first step towards full prevention and elimination of the entry of counterfeit products and components into the supply chain. Within the cryptographic framework of the pilot, an SGTIN can be in the possession of only a single trading partner at any given time. Any duplication will alert the network to the existence and location of a counterfeit asset.

The first market vertical that Chronicled is tackling with the methodology -- in partnership with The LinkLab -- is the pharmaceutical supply chain. An FDA regulatory regime called the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) calls for full end-to-end track and trace of pharma products by 2023 on an interoperable platform. However, under conventional approaches, the pharmaceutical industry fears the leakage of sensitive business intelligence that could tip-off their trading and financing partners about purchasing patterns and business volumes.

"Our team has been working hard on this key privacy issue, and as a result Chronicled is now the first to successfully demonstrate this cryptographically secure method of anonymous physical asset identity transfer," said Chronicled CEO, Ryan Orr. "As an immediate next step, we plan to continue to work with industry partners to implement current supply chain workflows using this technology while optimizing for volume, aggregation, returns, recalls, and performance considerations."

"This is the first step in a longer-term plan to fundamentally improve the way assets move through supply chains by using blockchain technology to immutably track the provenance of any object with an SGTIN," said Chronicled CTO, Maurizio Greco.

Data written to a blockchain are transparent and immutable and do not rely on central databases or human intermediaries. Because of this, the zk-SNARK methodology is not susceptible to human error or conventional hacking. The framework piloted by Chronicled prevents any leakage of company identity, shipment information, and transaction volumes and makes the usage of a blockchain ledger resistant to unwanted usage or analysis of data by an industry analyst or malicious third party. Associated smart contracts allow a regulator to fully and reliably audit the provenance of an asset after the fact, without the need for prior knowledge, continuous monitoring, or the need for trust in the various organizations operating within the supply chain.

"In early August, Chronicled will host a clean-room session with three experts in the field of applied cryptography to verify the robustness of the technical method and publish independent assessments in a public forum," said Chronicled Engineer Maksym Petkus.

While the initial pilot is being implemented using a Parity client on Ethereum, it is compatible with other blockchain systems, including Quorum and Hyperledger, which Chronicled also supports. When fully implemented, the system is expected to represent a major step towards eliminating much of the friction that exists under present regulatory and trade regimes, as data privacy is afforded while at the same time the record of custody and provenance is immutably and cryptographically secured. This unique solution to solving the competing requirements of full privacy, and also item level provenance when requested by a regulator, will represent a major move toward digitalization, trust, and interoperability in global trade flows.

More broadly, the pilot lays the foundation for the implementation of secure, automated business practices on blockchain systems. Follow-on use cases might include IoT-based verification of physical custody of a physical shipment as a precursor to being able to transfer custody of an SGTIN to the next trading partner in the chain; or, immediate, secure fulfillment of contractual obligations, including, for example, automated payment upon delivery of a shipment.

Chronicled Completes Technical Pilot Demonstrating Cryptographic Anonymous Transfer of SGTINs for Supply Chain ... - PR Newswire (press release)

In Brief China's new quantum communication network in the city of Jinan is expected to change cryptography for the better. As computers become more powerful, current encryption methods become less reliable. Quantum cryptography will be a key technology for addressing this. Securing the Internet

For a country notorious for its restrictive internet policies, China seems to be taking the lead on developing next-generation internet communications. The city of Jinan is set to become the hub of this quantum communications network that will boost Beijing-Shanghai internet when the project is launched by the end of August. It is set to become the worlds first unhackable internet communications network.

Unlike encryption methods that hide the key under difficult mathematical problems, quantum communication and cryptographyuse entanglementto do the trick. Concretely, the key is embedded in photons (light particles) and sent ahead of the encrypted message a method called quantum key distribution (QKD).

Communication becomes unhackable this way because any attempt to intercept the key would be obviousto the sender and the intendedrecipient. Whats even more impressive is that China has the technology to extend quantum communications up to 400 kilometers (about 250 miles), as previously demonstrated in a quantum cryptography research in Hefei.

As technology becomes increasingly more complex, computers are becomingincreasingly more powerful. This puts current encryption methods in danger, as number-crunching becomes easier with powerful computing power. Number-based keys need to be prolonged and constantly updated to keep up. QKD potentially solves all of this.

Yet, for the most part, it seems China is leaving the West behind in pursuit of this technology. For a long time people simply didnt think it was needed, Myungshik Kim from Imperial College, London,told the BBC. The mathematical difficulty of the current coding system was so high that it was not thought necessary to implement the new technology.

Recent security breeches and hacks, of course, reveal the error of this thinking. Thats one reason why China is pursuing quantum communication, but the tech has a number of other possible applications as well.

We plan to use the [Jinan] network for national [defense], finance, and other fields, and hope to spread it out as a pilot that if successful, can be used across China and the whole world, Zhou Fei, Jinan Institute of Quantum Technology assistant director, previously told the Financial Times.

China's New Quantum Communication Network Will Be Unhackable - Futurism

Satellites can now set up quantum communications links through the air during the day instead of just at night, potentially helping a nigh-unhackable space-based quantum Internet to operate 24-7, a new study from Chinese scientists finds.

Quantum cryptography exploits the quantum properties of particles such as photons to help encrypt and decrypt messages in a theoretically unhackable way. Scientists worldwide are now endeavoring to develop satellite-based quantum communications networks for a global real-time quantum Internet.

However, prior experiments with long-distance quantum communications links through the airwere mostly conducted at night because sunlight serves as a source of noise. Previously, the maximum range for day-time free-space quantum communication was 10 kilometers,says study co-senior author Qiang Zhang, a quantum physicist at the University of Science and Technology of China in Shanghai.

Now researchers led by quantum physicist Jian-Wei Pan at the University of Science and Technology of China at Hefei have successfully established 53-kilometer quantum cryptography links during the day between two ground stations. This research suggests that such links could work between a satellite and either a ground station or another satellite, they say.

To overcome interference from sunlight, the researchers switched from the roughly 700-to-900-nanometer wavelengths of light used in all prior day-time free-space experiments to roughly 1,550 nm. The sun is about one-fifth as bright at 1,550 nanometers as it is at 800 nanometers, and 1,550-nanometer light can also pass through Earth's atmosphere with virtually no interference. Moreover, this wavelength is also currently widely used in telecommunications, making it more compatible with existing networks.

Previous research was reluctant to use 1,550-nanometer light because of a lack of good commercial single-photon detectors capable of working at this wavelength. But the Shanghai group developed a compact single-photon detector for 1,550-nanometer light that could work at room temperature. Moreover, the scientists developed a receiver that needed less than one tenth of the field of view that receivers for night-time quantum communications links usually need to work. This limited the amount of noise from stray light by a factor of several hundred.

In experiments, the scientists repeatedly established quantum communications links across Qinghai Lake, the biggest lake in China, from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time on several sunny days, achieving transmission rates of 20 to 400 bits per second. Furthermore, they could establish these links despite roughly 48 decibels of loss in their communications channel, which is more than the roughly 40 to 45 decibels of loss typically seen in communications channels between satellites and the ground and between low-Earth-orbit satellites, Zhang says. In comparison, previous day-time free-space quantum communications experiments could only accommodate roughly 20 decibels of noise.

The researchers note that their experiments were performed in good weather, and that quantum communication is currently not possible in bad weather with todays technology. Still, they note that bad weather is only a problem for ground-to-space links, and that it would not pose a problem for links between satellites.

In the future, the researchers expect to boost transmission rates and distance using better single-photon detectors, perhaps superconducting ones. They may also seek to exploit the quantum phenomenon known as entanglement to carry out more sophisticated forms of quantum cryptography, although this will require generating very bright sources of entangled photons that can operate in a narrow band of wavelengths, Zhang says.

The scientists detailed their findings online 24 July in the journal Nature Photonics.

Quantum Cryptography System Breaks Daylight Distance Record - IEEE Spectrum

SK Telecom is adding a new level of security to the Internet of Things (IoT) by embedding a small quantum random number generator (QRNG) chip into its IoT devices. QRNG chips generates random numbers without any pattern, which is intended to increase the level of security.

The South Korean operator also said that its QRNG chip will be just 5 millimeters (mm) by 5 mm in size, making it small enough to embed in a variety of devices.

According to Sam Hale, analyst with MachNation, hardware-based random number generation, like the QRNG chip, has existed for some time and is already largely deployed in some business sectors. In fact, Hale said that random number generators (of which QRNG is a subset), have existed in various formats for decades and Intel currently uses this type of technology for its Intel Secure Key brand.

The benefit to IoT is that QRNG ensures common encryption methods cannot be broken due to weaknesses within their random number generators. The QRNG technology magnifies very small scale quantum uncertainties to a much larger scale.

SK Telecom has not yet determined the price of its QRNG chips, but said that it will work with partners to accelerate the popularity of QRNG and increase its presence in the market.

However, Hale said that SK may have some difficulty getting traction for its QRNG chip as both Intel and ARM, which currently produce the majority of IoT processors, already use competing technologies or have QRNG technology already embedded in them.

SK Telecom has been investing heavily in IoT. The company said earlier this year that it would invest $9 billion over the next three years in artificial intelligence (AI), IoT, autonomous vehicles, and 5G.

SK Telecom Develops Quantum Cryptography Chip for IoT - SDxCentral

China is set to launch a new "unhackable" communications network built upon cutting-edge quantum cryptography, promising to revolutionise the process of encryption. State media said the city of Jinan will be "the first in the world" to use the secure technology in government.

Scientists claimed the network, which reportedly cost 120m yuan ($19.5m, 15m) to construct, will connect government offices in the city. Roughly 50 rounds of testing indicated it will be capable of encrypting more than 4,000 pieces of data every second, China Daily reported.

It will be used by 200 users across Jinan's government, finance and military departments, state media said. Experts from the Institute of Quantum Technology located in Jinan revealed the revolutionary network would be rolled out by August later this year.

Unlike the encryption of today, quantum-based networks send messages inserted into particles of light.

The "unhackable" claim comes from the fact that if anyone attempts to break into the network the particles will change and the message will be destroyed.

"We plan to use the network for national defence, finance and other fields, and hope to spread it out as a pilot that if successful, can be used across China and the whole world," said Zhou Fei, assistant director of Jinan Institute of Quantum Technology, as noted by the Financial Times.

It's not the first time China has invested in quantum tech. Last year it launched a "hack-proof" communications satellite, which was put on a two-year mission to help develop stronger communications at speeds "faster than light".

Many other nations have been reluctant to invest in such systems at scale, but why?

"For a long time people simply didn't think it was needed," Professor Myungshik Kim of Imperial College, London, told the BBC. "The mathematical difficulty of the current coding system was so high that it was not thought necessary to implement the new technology."

Now, it appears that China is leading the charge. "While nothing can truly be deemed as 'unhackable', new and radical approaches are very much needed to help secure technology and communications," said Javvad Malik, an expert at security firm AlienVault.

He added: "Having applications utilising technologies that make them more difficult to hack, or can detect quickly and reliably when a compromise has occurred is always a welcome addition and one would hope to see such improvements in all new technologies and national infrastructure."

Andrew Clarke, director at security firm One Identity, said that the promise of quantum technology continued to be a "bright spot on the horizon".

He elaborated: "The latest experiments in China have adopted satellite systems and increased wavelengths to establish quantum cryptography links during the day.

"The concept behind the technology is that if there is any interference in the communication such as an attacker trying to steal an encryption key then the quantum mechanics theory indicates that the key would immediately change to prevent that from being successful.

"At this stage, the experiments involve point-to-point encrypted communication, but when extended could provide a new approach to wider communications between multiple trusted parties.

"It will require much more research; experimentation and investment to extend to wider use; boost transmission rates and distance. This is certainly a step in the right direction to address global security concerns concerning public internet use."

The hardware inside microcontrollers is increasingly powerful and versatile. This is good, right?

When I started working with embedded systems, microcontrollers and DSPs were very different things. In fact, the first professional system that I was deeply involved in was a perfect example of the distinction: An 8051 microcontroller was used for housekeeping tasks and a test/debug RS-232 interface. A Texas Instruments DSP was used for intensive mathematical computations. The 8051 was programmed by a mechanical engineer, and the DSP was programmed by an electrical engineer who later became a system engineer. I dont know what this last sentence says about the MCU vs. DSP distinction, but maybe you can discover some hidden significance.

As microcontrollers become more powerful and incorporate additional dedicated hardware, the MCU and DSP categories become less relevant. Microchip is contributing to this trend with its PIC32MZ DA and CEC1702 microcontrollers, which incorporate advanced graphics capabilities and hardware cryptography, respectively. As one of the press releases points out, the PIC32MZ DA family breaks through perceived MCU graphics barriers. Just for the record, Im not making a value judgment here; you can call these parts whatever you want as far as Im concerned. When Im searching for a part I look at the specs, not the category, and I know which manufacturers make the processors that Im interested in.

However, as implied by the introduction to this article, I think it is worthwhile to consider the implications of microcontrollers that incorporate increasingly diverse and sophisticated functionality. There is always a trade-off: higher performance comes with design challenges such as stricter layout requirements, higher levels of firmware abstraction, or simply longer datasheets that are more intimidating for novices. There is perhaps some degree of risk in making microcontrollers increasingly unapproachable for those who dont have extensive experience in embedded design.

No one could deny that graphical displays or interfaces are essential aspects of modern electronic devices, and I assume that many designers will be glad to see manufacturers such as Microchip making efforts to support and improve this functionality. The PIC32MZ DA family includes a graphics controller, a graphics processing unit (GPU), and up to 32 MB of RAM.

Ive never had any need for encryption in my projects and I honestly know very little about it. But I readily believe that its important in these days of cybercriminals, identify theft, and shady business practices (shady business practices are nothing new, I supposeI doubt the Phoenicians attributed their success to fair trade). Microchip is emphasizing the importance of data security in the context of an IoT world, and that makes sense: if indeed the world will one day be filled with little Internet-connected devices sending data every which way, we might as well do what we can to protect that data from malefactors.

The CEC1702 is a 32-bit microcontroller built around an ARM Cortex-M4 processor. The special security features are described as encryption, authentication, and private and public key capabilities. As usual, this integrated functionality provides significant performance benefits by using hardware to accomplish tasks that otherwise would burden the processor; the product page mentions a factor-of-100 performance improvement for encryption and decryption.

In addition to typical encryption of data and code, the CEC1702 offers the following:

Do you have experience with complex embedded graphics applications? Do you think that the functionality offered by the PIC32MZ DA would be a significant advantage in the design process?
