Systems and methods for utilizing quantum entropy for secure virtual private network connections

Last updated:

Abstract:

A device may establish a connection with a first server device based on a request to establish a peer-to-peer connection between a first client device, associated with the first server device, and a second client device associated with a second server device, and may generate a plurality of quantum random numbers based on establishing the connection with the first server device and based on the request to establish the peer-to-peer connection. The device may generate encryption keys for the first client device and the second client device based on the plurality of quantum random numbers, and may provide the encryption keys to the first client device and the second client device to cause an encrypted peer-to-peer connection to be established between the first client device and the second client device, via an interface provided between the first server device and the second server device.
