Physicists Use Location To Guarantee Security of Quantum Messages

Abstract:
It's not hard to imagine the advantages of location-based cryptography. The goal is to send a message that can only be read by somebody at a specific location. As long as the perimeter of this location is secure, this message should remain perfectly secret. How governments, the military and banks would like to get their hands on something like that.
