Description
Summary:Industrial networks are frequently utilized for safety-critical applications that demand real-time requirements. Message scheduling or timestamp is typically a key component of such applications, which are typically time-triggered. Timestamps at each party in quantum communication must be synchronized or share a common understanding of time for secure communication. Clock synchronization is thus a key component of real-time networks. Despite the benefits of time synchronization, enforcing clock synchronization on behalf of several quantum channel parties and preventing attacks from an adversary is still tricky. This paper identifies a possible attack on time synchronization and a way to solve the aforementioned issues. Therefore, we need a protocol that establishes a secure environment in terms of security with time synchronization so that various parties may freely and openly communicate. This paper also addresses
