Download or read book Quantum Cryptography written by Fouad Sabry and published by One Billion Knowledgeable. This book was released on 2022-07-10 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is 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). How You Will Benefit (I) Insights, and validations about the following topics: Chapter 1: Quantum cryptography Chapter 2: Quantum teleportation Chapter 3: Quantum entanglement Chapter 4: Quantum key distribution Chapter 5: Quantum network Chapter 6: John Rarity Chapter 7: BB84 Chapter 8: Time-bin encoding Chapter 9: Quantum cloning Chapter 10: Quantum nonlocality Chapter 11: One-way quantum computer Chapter 12: SARG04 Chapter 13: Noisy-storage model Chapter 14: Decoy state Chapter 15: Nicolas J.
