Abstract: The book thoroughly examines the interaction between quantum computing and encryption, two advanced domains in current technology. This study explores the specific ways in which progress in quantum computing affects cryptographic security. This research aims to examine the impact of advancements in quantum computing on cryptographic methods and to investigate the necessary adaptations in cryptography to tackle these new difficulties. The study begins by explaining the basic principles of quantum computing, emphasizing its distinct features like superposition and entanglement, which allow quantum computers to do certain calculations more rapidly than classical computers. The paper also analyzes practical obstacles in creating quantum-resistant cryptography systems and their real-world applications. This involves conversations about scalability, infrastructure integration, and the necessity for global standards and policies. The paper stresses the importance of the cryptographic community taking proactive steps to adjust to the quantum computing age. The study advocates for further research and cooperation between quantum physicists and cryptographers to create secure cryptographic systems that are immune to quantum attacks, thus guaranteeing the ongoing security of sensitive data in the quantum era.
