"A Calgary scientist is working on a security technology that could one day make Internet hacking a concern of the past. Dr. Wolfgang Tittel from the University of Calgary's Centre for Information Security and Cryptography is working with a team to develop secure encryption technology using quantum mechanics. Most of today's data sent over the Internet is sent electronically. Tittel is using fibre optics to send data on light photons that can move so fast, they can teleport themselves from one place to another instantly."
