Genuine multipartite entanglement is not a precondition for secure conference key agreement
Entanglement plays a crucial role in the security of quantum key distribution. A secret key can only be obtained by two parties if there exists a corresponding entanglement-based description of the protocol in which entanglement is witnessed, as shown by Curty et al. [M. Curty, M. Lewenstein, and N....
