Quantum walk-based protocol for secure communication between any two directly connected nodes on a network

Prateek Chawla, Adithi Ajith, C. M. Chandrashekar

Abstract The utilization of quantum entanglement as a cryptographic resource has superseded conventional approaches to secure communication. Security and fidelity of intranetwork communication between quantum devices is the backbone of a quantum network. This work presents an protocol that generates entanglement between any two directly connected nodes of a quantum network to be used as a resource to enable quantum communication across that pair in the network. The protocol is based on a directed discrete-time quantum walk and paves the way for private inter-node quantum communication channels in the network. We also present the simulation results of this protocol on random networks generated from various models. We show that after implementation, the probability of the walker being at all nodes other than the source and target is negligible and this holds independent of the random graph generation model. This constitutes a viable method for the practical realisation of secure communication over any random network topology.

Quantum cryptography assessing the security and practicality of quantum key distribution in modern communication networks

Abha Kiran Rajpoot, Dharmesh Dhabliya, V. N. Trupti +3 more

The increasing number of cyber threats and the approaching development of quantum computing demand a critical review of existing cryptographic approaches. The goal of this work is to evaluate the security and practicality of utilizing Quantum Key Distribution for secure communications. QKD utilizes the laws of quantum mechanics to provide a secure and unbreakable method for exchanging information. Protocols like BB84 are resistant to threatening attacks from both classical and quantum adversaries. The methodology utilizes simulated models and quantum communication toolkits to study critical characteristics such as key generation speed, QBER, latency and scalability. Performance of QKD is compared to that of classical schemes such as RSA-2048, ECC-256 and AES-256. Results reveal that although QKD provides unparalleled theoretical security, its deployment has notable obstacles such as intricate infrastructure, restrictions on distance and elevated latency. Our study reveals that optimizing the interplay between security and practicality in QKD deployment can yield a highly effective safeguard for next-generation communication networks.

Advanced Learning Based Quantum Key Distribution Framework for Practical Secure Communication Networks

ShivaPrasanna. K, B. Rajesh Shyamala Devi, Ravichand S

The integration of Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) with Machine Learning (ML) has developed a high-end, secure model for accurate data transmission and network security. Many existing systems face several issues due to advances in quantum computing. Thus, integrating these models improved the efficiency, accuracy, and feasibility of QKD systems. In this paper, an Advanced Learning Approach (ALA) is combined with the Quantum Key Distribution Framework to refine key generation, error correction, and intrusion detection in quantum communication channels. The proposed ALA also used reinforcement learning algorithms to predict quantum channel fluctuations, dynamically adjust key exchange parameters, and strengthen authentication protocols. Simulation results demonstrate improved key rates, reduced Quantum Bit Error Rates (QBER), and enhanced resilience against eavesdropping attacks. The study contributes to the realization of practical, scalable, and intelligent quantum-secure communication systems—bridging the gap between theoretical quantum security and real-world network deployment.
