WELCOME TO QuEST: THE IDQ NEWSLETTER Hello and welcome to the April 2016 edition of the Quantum Era Security Times. In our blog, “Entropy, not Apathy” we take a look at the vital role key generation plays in encryption and the importance of a good source of entropy. As the EU Parliament finally adopts the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we consider the implications for European business. In other news, we highlight progress towards the new Quantum Communications Backbone in Italy and see what Atos CEO Thierry Breton has to say about their development of a Quantum Computer in France.
