About the Center for Cyber Security and Cryptology

The Center aims at the promo on of interdisciplinary research as well as training and
development in cybersecurity and cryptology. The center aspires to develop cu ng-
edge research ac vi es in the field of cybersecurity and related technologies, to
enhance knowledge for present and future requirements to fulfill the growing demand
in the na onal and interna onal arena. The goal of this Center is primarily to foster
fundamental as well as demand-driven "research and applica ons in cryptology and
cybersecurity”. The objec ves are to create a skilled manpower base and to provide
training and direc on to various
wings of the Armed Forces, Central and State Police Organiza ons, and also financial
ins tu ons.
Another major objec ve of the Centre is capacity building at the na onal level to make
the country self-sufficient in this niche area.

About the Training Program

Objec ve:
The primary objec ve of this 5-day short-term training program is to provide
par cipants with a comprehensive introduc on to the fundamental principles,
emerging technologies, and prac cal applica ons of Quantum Compu ng and
Quantum Cryptography. As quantum technologies rapidly evolve, they are poised to
revolu onize fields ranging from secure communica on to high-performance
compu ng. This program aims to bridge the knowledge gap for students, researchers,
researchers, and professionals interested focus on Quantum Key
Distribu on (QKD), quantum-safe encryp on.
Scope of the Training Program
This short-term training program is designed to introduce par cipants to the
founda onal and emerging aspects of Quantum Compu ng and Quantum
Cryptography, combining theore cal knowledge with prac cal skills. The scope of
the program encompasses a broad spectrum of topics to ensure par cipants gain a
holis c understanding of quantum technologies and their growing relevance across
scien fic and technological domains.

Key areas to be covered include:

• Quantum Compu ng Fundamentals: Introduc on to quantum mechanics
principles relevant to compu ng, including qubits, superposi on, entanglement,
and quantum gates.
• Quantum Algorithms: Overview of key algorithms such as Shor’s algorithm for
integer factoriza on and Grover’s algorithm for database search, including their
computa onal advantages over classical algorithms.
• Quantum Cryptography Concepts: Understanding the principles and protocols of
secure communica on using quantum mechanics, with a focus on Quantum Key
Distribu on (QKD) and BB84 protocol.
• Post-Quantum Security: Discussion on the impact of quantum compu ng on
current cryptographic systems and the emerging field of post-quantum
cryptography.
• Quantum Programming and Simula on: Hands-on sessions using tools like IBM
Qiskit, Google Cirq, or Microso Q#, enabling par cipants to design and simulate
basic quantum circuits.
• Research and Industry Trends: Insights into ongoing research, real-world
applica ons, and the future landscape of quantum technologies in academia,
industry, and defense.

The program is suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate students, research

scholars, faculty members, and industry professionals from computer science,
physics, electronics, mathema cs, and related fields. It aims to foster
interdisciplinary learning and encourage par cipants to pursue advanced studies or
research in the quantum domain.
By the end of the program, a endees will have built a solid conceptual and applied
founda on in quantum technologies, preparing them to
engage with further academic or professional opportuni es in this
rapidly advancing field.
