On 29th March, at the Computing Conference in Shenzhen, AliCloud published a case of cloud-based quantum cryptography communication, in which Mybank accomplished a quantum cryptography communication pilot on the Apsara Stack through the use of quantum technology. This was achieved by the close cooperation between AliCloud and QuantumCTek, making AliCloud the first cloud computing company in the world that can provide quantum encrypted transmission of information.

QuantumCTek and Alibaba were among the first units that advocated the establishment of the China Quantum Communication Industry Alliance. In recent years, the two enterprises complemented each other's weaknesses and carried out collaborative innovation in the application of quantum communication technology in the industry. At the Computing Conference in Hangzhou held in October 2015, Alibaba and QuantumCTek co-issued AliCloud quantum cryptography communication products. It was the first time that quantum cryptography technology was combined with cloud services, making quantum cryptography technology a kind of shared resource in the world.

It was said that a group of credit business data of Mybank took the lead to realize long-distance cloud-based quantum cryptography communication. This business had to use a large sum of data computing to grant authorization to customers, thus putting high requirements for the secure transmission of the data to the data center. This transmission was conducted in the Apsara Stack passage in metropolitan area by using the mature quantum communication technology and products of QuantumCTek, which ensured that data would not be cracked down and keys would not be stolen or falsified during the transmission process.

At present, the industry has gradually recognized the importance of quantum cryptography. All sectors concerning the transmission of sensitive information on Internet had strong demand for quantum cryptography including but not limited to the finance, governments and enterprises, and the internet of things. The future is coming. With the deepened cooperation between the two sides, quantum communication technology ought to be applied in wider fields, thus enter thousands of households and become an inclusive technology.
