Quantum Obfuscation

In this paper we discuss developing opaque predicates with the help of quantum entangled qubits. These opaque predicates obfuscate classical control flow in hybrid quantum-classical systems. The idea is to use a pair of entangled qubits, one at compile-time and one in the compiled code at runtime to create opaque predicates. We make use of the CHSH game (John Clauser, Michael Horne, Abner Shimony, and Richard Holt) to get consensus about the value of a qubit at runtime, whose value can be predicted at compile time with high probability due to quantum properties. The paper discusses designing opaque predicate that relies on the quantum behavior of the entangled qubits and quantum measurements. The obfuscation produced by this technique maintain only a semantic accuracy of 85.35% when one entangled pair of qubits are used. However, we show that the accuracy can be improved to 100% by introducing additional entangled qubit pairs.
