# Proposers - Alberto González Barneo (Optare Solutions) - Pedro Paulo Tavares (Optare Solutions) # Description Integrating a Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) Application Register within the Teraflow SDN controller aims to establish a dedicated registry for applications that utilize quantum keys for secure communication. This feature will enable a streamlined process for registering, managing, and deploying QKD applications, facilitating enhanced security measures across the network. The registry will act as a central repository for application credentials, key management, and configuration settings, ensuring efficient and secure application communication over the quantum network. # Demo or definition of done - Successful deployment and registration of QKD applications within the Teraflow SDN environment. - Verification of secure communication channels between registered applications using quantum keys. - Comprehensive documentation detailing the registration process, configuration options, and security protocols. # References - Order: 6 - Dependencies: QKD Network Topology (Context), SBI for QKD Nodes - References: ETSI GS QKD 015 V2.1.1 # Acknowledgments Ministerio de Asuntos Económicos y Transformación Digital and the European Union-Next GenerationEU in the frameworks of the Plan de Recuperación, Transformación y Resilienciaand of the Mecanismo de Recuperación y Resiliencia trough UNICO-5G I+D 6G-OPENSEC-KEYS project under reference TSI-063000-2021-61
