Quantum Cryptography

Utilizing quantum mechanical features in order to carry out cryptographic operations is the field of study known as quantum cryptography. The most well-known application of quantum cryptography is quantum key distribution, which provides a safe, from an information theory standpoint, solution to the issue of key exchange. The benefit of quantum cryptography lies in the fact that it enables the successful completion of a variety of cryptographic tasks that have been demonstrated or conjectured to be impossible using only classical communication. These tasks include decrypting messages that have been encrypted using a key that has been stolen. It is not feasible, for instance, to duplicate data that has been encoded in a quantum state. If someone makes an effort to read the encoded data, the quantum state will be altered as a result of the collapse of the wave function. In quantum key distribution, this may be used to identify eavesdropping on conversations (QKD).
