arXiv:2610.22879v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Quantum key distribution (QKD) offers a security foundation independent of computational hardness assumptions. However, its reliance on specialized hardware limits access by ordinary users. Turning QKD into a service poses a fundamental trust challenge, as the providers that supply QKD-derived material themselves could retain knowledge of the keying inputs of users.
