MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611024539 A) filed by Sachin Kumar, Noida, Uttar Pradesh, on March 2, for 'system and method for quantum-secured validator communication in decentralized networks.'
Inventor(s) include Sachin Kumar; Jyotika Singhal; and Vaibhav Tripathi.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Disclosed is a system (100) for quantum-secured validator communication. The system (100) includes a plurality of validator nodes (102) communicatively coupled via a decentralized network (108). Each validator node includes processing circuitry (110a, 110b, 110n). The system (100) further includes a communication network (106) including a classical encrypted channel (124) and a quantum channel (126). The processing circuitry of each validator node is configured to establish a key distribution session with one or more other validator nodes via the quantum channel (126) to generate shared symmetric key material. The processing circuitry derives one or more transport keys from the shared symmetric key material. The processing circuitry determines a security score for the one or more other validator nodes based on metrics associated with the key distribution session. The processing circuitry implements the security score in consensus operations."
