Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Security and reliability of traditional cryptographic methods for ensuring confidentiality is questionable taking into account contemporary threats (HPC, Grid technologies, quantum computing et al). Alternatively, quantum cryptography has proven itself as a more reliable information security technology. It's independent from intruder computational capability, uses specific unique properties of quantum particles, and based on quantum physics laws inviolability. However, data transmission using deterministic quantum protocol with depolarizing quantum channel is not studied today (potentially, intruder can hide his probes in this channel). From this viewpoint, the model of an intruder control mode for deterministic protocol with Bell states of qutrit pairs in the noisy depolarizing channel is developed and a simulation of this protocol in such channel is fulfilled. Also, the formula for a total probability of an error, which can arise both owing to attack, and owing to natural noise, at measurement in a intruder control mode is derived.
