Quantum Cryptography is a technology ensuring secured communication that is used as a means of data transaction among network systems. These data and informations are used in banking, secret services, military, business, scholastic instruction and research in various fields both in private as well as open systems. These days, mathematical hypothesis is applied for encoding and unscrambling on both sender and receiver in PC security and systems. Thus, to utilize security assault with superior PC (e.g. quantum PC) assailant has to locate a key and after that gets the information in feasible period. Quantum cryptography is an arrangement where the utilization of polarization guarantees that the transmitted information is not intercepted by any interfering entity. This paper deals with a new three way model where a reliable outsider is used to secure the correspondence channel using an unknown discreet key.

Nowadays, the information is exchanged among the computer network. These data and information are involved in business, military, academic education, research and etc. which are shared around the world in both private and public network. Since, many categories of data are required restriction on authorization of access, modify, delete and insert, security in communication is increasingly important to the network communication. Currently, computer security applies mathematic theory to computer security for encrypting and decrypting on both sender and receiver. To use security attack with high performance computer (e.g. quantum computer), attacker can find a key and then obtains the data in feasible period. Quantum cryptography is one of the solutions that use property of polarization to ensure that transmitted data is not trapped by eavesdropper. Quantum cryptography is improved significantly in the last decades including the most two dominant protocol BB84 and BB92.
Security knowledge is one of the foremost challenges in the present day. When the topic is about Information security, the concept of cryptography comes into the picture. Every day, people and organizations use cryptography to maintain the confidentiality of their communications and data as well as to preserve their privacy. Today, one of the most successful methods used by businesses to protect their storage systems, whether at rest or in transit, is cryptography. Yet, cryptography is an effective technique to secure the data, the modern technology can break the cryptographic techniques. But some data encryption algorithms are several times stronger than today's conventional cryptography and can be constructed using quantum computing. They are "Quantum Cryptographic Algorithms ". Quantum cryptography uses the rules of quantum physics instead of classical encryption, which is based on mathematics, to protect and transmit data in a way that cannot be intercepted. Quantum key distribution is the greatest illustration of quantum cryptography and offers a safe solution to the key exchange issue. The proposed work deals with quantum cryptography and mainly focuses on how the quantum cryptographic algorithm is more secure than traditional cryptography.
Users of communication channels wish to have their transactions secured. Therefore, it is necessary to develop techniques which can ensure that eavesdroppers cannot intercept the messages transmitted. The technology concerned with the secure communication of data is termed as cryptography [1-3]. It is the art of hiding information in the form of a string of bits to an unauthorized party. To achieve this goal, in a classical cryptography system the message bits are combined with random bits of equal length called a key. The combined data is known as cryptogram. This technique is called encryption. A key can be public or private. The public key is to encode plaintext, while the private key is for decoding the previously encoded plaintext or cryptogram. The cryptogram is generally sent through the communication channel. Because of the randomness of the key the encoded message is completely random. Consequently, the message is untraceable to an eavesdropper. The safety of the transmission completely depends on the safety of the key. Therefore, the key should be kept secret by the users.
In today’s world, security in data communication has become a top-most priority in every organization. In general, cryptography is defined as the methodology to ensure data is secure by employing suitable encryption and decryption techniques. On the transmitter side, the original message is encrypted using a key. Then the encrypted data is decrypted with the duplicate key at the receiver side as per the accepted protocol between the two parties. In conventional cryptographic techniques, eavesdropping is prevented from accessing the contents of encrypted message by employing certain mathematical function and techniques, but this security methodology does not guarantee any key security. In many scenarios, a secure communication link is established by using a key, but a third party with a bad intent may steal the session keys, giving rise to data security, getting compromised. So in this regard, quantum cryptography is a better alternative when it comes to data security integrity. In this research, a detail about quantum cryptography is elaborated on, and also discussed are various concepts like single photon protocol, loss of data in quantum computing, how quantum is affecting computer communication systems. In conventional cryptographic methodology of data transmission and reception, there is always a probability of eavesdropping leading to the compromising of data integrity and security. The solution to this problem can be obtained by integrating the quantum cryptographic technique with data at the sender as well as the receiver, to detect and minimize various errors by employing suitable bit error scheme. This involves the usage of programming language specific to quantum computing like qcl and quipper to achieve efficient encryption and decryption with faster processing capability.

Cryptography literally means "The art & science of secret writing & sending a message between two parties in such a way that its contents cannot be understood by someone other than the intended recipient."and Quantum word is related with "Light".Thus, Quantum Cryptography is a way of descripting any information in the form of quantum particles.There are no classical cryptographic systems which are perfectly secure.In contrast to Classical cryptography which depends upon Mathematics, Quantum Cryptography utilizes the concepts of Quantum Physics which provides us the security against the cleverest marauders of the present age.In the view of increasing need of Network and Information Security, we do require methods to overcome the Molecular Computing technologies (A future technology) and other techniques of the various codebrakers.Both the parts i.e.Quantum Key distribution and Information transference from Sender to Receiver are much efficient and secure.It is based upon BB84 protocol.It can be of great use for Govt.agencies such as Banks, Insurance, Brokerages firms, financial institutions, e-commerce and most important is the Defense & security of any country.It is a Cryptographic communication system in which the original users can detect unauthorized eavesdropper and in addition it gives a guarantee of no eavesdropping.It proves to be the ultra secure mode of communication b/w two intended parties.
