This $500,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program will fund research at The Pennsylvania State University from February 2022 to January 2025. The university will identify vulnerabilities and develop defenses for securing large-scale noisy-intermediate scale quantum computing. Specifically, the grant will support identifying assets, vulnerabilities, security threats, and potential for intellectual property theft in multi-tenant quantum computing environments and with untrusted third-party compilers. The university will develop machine learning-based screening, obfuscation techniques, and a split compilation approach to secure quantum circuits and systems. Outcomes will help address key adoption barriers for quantum computing in sensitive sectors like healthcare, energy, and defense.
