In the realm of cryptography, the pursuit of heightened security and innovative methodologies is ceaseless, especially in light of advancing computational capabilities. Quantum computing, with its paradigm-shifting potential, has emerged as a promising avenue for revolutionizing cryptographic protocols. Visual cryptography, a method aimed at securely transmitting images or visual information, has garnered attention for its simplicity and effectiveness. This abstract delves into the fusion of quantum mechanics with visual cryptography, presenting Quantum Visual Cryptography (QVC) as a cutting-edge cryptographic framework. QVC combines the principles of quantum mechanics, which exploit the unique properties of quantum particles such as superposition and entanglement, with the visual cryptography scheme. The fundamental premise of QVC lies in leveraging quantum states to generate and distribute secret shares of images among parties. Unlike classical visual cryptography, where the shares are distributed optically or electronically, QVC harnesses the power of quantum entanglement to ensure unparalleled security and confidentiality.

Quantum image encryption has become a promising direction to protect visual information stored or transmitted through cyberspace due to its cryptographic power and resilience that are under-researched. This survey makes a systematic study of the current advancement in the field of quan-tum image encryption concerning cryptographic security and AI-based approaches. We survey the state of quantum-based encryption, such as quantum key distribution, chaotic quantum systems, and AI methods, such as deep learning, to generate keys and detect attacks through a thorough literature review. The significant findings include that quantum encryption may provide unprecedented security levels through mechanisms such as superposition and entanglement, yet computational complexity and hardware constraints are obstacles to implementation. AI-based methods have improved efficiency and adaptability but have created adversarial attack risks. We can conclude that quantum image encryption has the potential to transform the secure transmission of data, but it is necessary to incorporate AI-powered optimizations into the proven quantum systems to ensure scalability and resistance to evolving threats. Hybrid models are the way of the future as they need to find a balance between security and realistic usage.
