Standardisation is indispensable for ensuring the seamless integration of quantum technologies into existing and future infrastructures. The European Commission highlighted the strategic importance of standardisation in the Quantum Europe Strategy published on 2 July, acknowledging ETSI’s contributions on Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). The strategy states that “A comprehensive QKD testing and evaluation facility is also being deployed […]. This facility enables rigorous characterisation, security testing, and early support for standardisation, closely aligned with the activities of ETSI Quantum Key Distribution”.
