Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, and methods are disclosed for quantum entanglement authentication (QEA). An example method includes transmitting a first number and a second electronic identification of a second subset of the first set of entangled quantum particles to a second computing device, transmitting a second number and a first electronic identification of a first subset of a first set of entangled quantum particles to a first computing device, wherein each entangled quantum particle in the first set of entangled quantum particles is entangled with a respective entangled quantum particle in a second set of entangled quantum particles, receiving, from the first computing device, a first session key, receiving, from the second computing device, a second session key and in an instance in which the first session key corresponds to the second session key, authenticating a session between the first computing device and the second computing device.
