Abstract
Popular modern encryption methods are at threat by quantum computing, where quantum algorithms have already been developed that can crack popular encryption methods. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) can future proof our communication systems by using quantum principles to create a new encryption method. Using satellites to provide key delivery to future QKD secured networks and systems, the approach of key delivery from space as a service will provide a fundamental tool within modern cybersecurity systems for authentication and encryption.
