Abstract:
The paper explores the changing field of secure communication, focusing on the significant impact of quantum cryptography. The talk begins by discussing the current issues in digital security, focusing on the weaknesses of traditional cryptographic techniques when faced with the capabilities of quantum computing. This talk aims to examine and emphasize the importance of quantum cryptography as a reliable method for ensuring secure communications in the future. The authors present a detailed summary of the fundamental principles of quantum cryptography, covering quantum key distribution (QKD) and important concepts of quantum mechanics such as superposition and entanglement that form the basis of this technology. We will examine possible uses of quantum cryptography, focusing on its importance in safeguarding vital infrastructure, government communications, and financial transactions. They also examine the future potential of quantum cryptography, particularly its incorporation with upcoming technologies such as blockchain and the Internet of Things (IoT). The article offers a comprehensive and futuristic examination of how quantum cryptography will revolutionize safe communication in a society that is becoming more interconnected and quantum-conscious.
