Quantum Cryptography: From Key Distribution to Conference Key Agreement

Federico Grasselli

Rising concerns about the security of our data have made quantum cryptography a very active research field in recent years. Quantum cryptographic protocols promise everlasting security by exploiting distinctive quantum properties of nature. The most extensively implemented protocol is quantum key distribution (QKD), which enables secure communication between two users. The aim of this book is to introduce the reader to state-of-the-art QKD and illustrate its recent multi-user generalization: quantum conference key agreement. With its pedagogical approach that doesn’t disdain going into details, the book enables the reader to join in cutting-edge research on quantum cryptography.

Quantum cryptography

N. Imoto

Recently, quantum mechanics and information science have been combined to create a new field, namely, quantum information processing, which has been growing up rapidly in these years. The so-called quantum computing and quantum cryptography are included in this field. Although quantum information processing is quite attractive for its amazing possibility, it is also considered to be hard to realize any of such new ideas into practical use. The author develops a theory on quantum key distribution (QKD) with coherent states and a theory on two-state QKD with noisy light sources.

Trends In Natural Language Processing : Scope And Challenges

Sagarmoy Ganguly, Asoke Nath

Quantum cryptography is a comparatively new and special type of cryptography which uses Quantum mechanics to provide unreal protection of data/information and unconditionally secure communications. This is achieved with Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) protocols which is a representation of an essential practical application of Quantum Computation. In this paper the authors will venture the concept of QKD by reviewinghow QKD works, the authors shall take a look at few protocols of QKD, followed by a practical example of Quantum Cryptography using QKD and certain limitations from the perspective of Computer Science in specific and Quantum Physics in general.
