Teachers, graduate students and scientists of the Department of Information Technology Security are actively conducting research within the Ukrainian-American research project “Quantum-driven security in emerging 5G networking”.

At the end of December 2021, Kotukh Yevhen, a doctoral student at the Department of Information Technology Security, as a representative of the Ukrainian project team, paid a working visit to the University of Colorado Springs (USA) at the invitation of the American side.

The purpose of the visit was to report on the results of research on the creation of quantum-protected channels of 5G networks, discussions and debates on further ways of project development.

The American colleagues of the project presented the infrastructure of the University of Colorado Springs, scientific developments and cybersecurity projects developed at the Faculty of Computer Science of the University, as well as the work of scientific laboratories directly involved in research on quantum network security technologies.

According to the results of the meeting, the parties noted the high efficiency of cooperation, agreed on the next stages of research and discussed options for publication and testing of the results.

The program of the next visit of KNURE scientists to the University of Colorado Springs, namely Professor Gennady Khalimov and graduate student of the department Alexander Marukhnenko, scheduled for February 2022, was also discussed.
