The Internet of Things (IoT) has grown rapidly, transforming various aspects of daily life into intelligent systems capable of collecting and exchanging data in real time. At the same time, advances in quantum computing have given rise to powerful quantum computers capable of processing complex tasks at unprecedented speed. This disparity between the limited resources of IoT devices and the capabilities of quantum computers poses significant security challenges. Quantum computers introduce new vulnerabilities that threaten IoT systems, particularly in critical applications such as connected healthcare, industrial networks, smart infrastructure, and secure embedded systems. This study reviews the existing literature on post-quantum cryptography (PQC) applied to IoT devices. It analyzes the characteristics and security requirements of IoT environments, current security technologies, and unresolved issues. It highlights the growing threat of post-quantum attacks and the need to adapt security strategies. Finally, the study explores post-quantum code-based cryptosystems as solutions to enhance the security of resource-constrained IoT applications and ensure their resilience against future challenges.

Post-Quantum Cryptography Standards for Future Proof IoT Security: A Literature Review

Norman Nelufule

The advent of quantum computing technology has transformed computing technologies into a machine with higher computing power. However, this has also introduced vulnerability challenges, as traditional cryptographic systems are prone to vulnerability to cyber threats, particularly in the context of the IoT. This paper presents a systematic literature survey of the landscape of postquantum cryptographic systems and their impact on the security of connected systems. The paper has explored various key encapsulation mechanisms that are resistant to quantum attacks, existing post-quantum standards, and assessed their applicability in the IoT environments and implementation challenges. The paper highlighted some of the limitations for adopting post-quantum cryptography due to limited existing standards which can be used to enforce the confidentiality, integrity, security, and privacy of data transmitted particularly by IoT connected devices.

Quantum Computing for IoT Security

Bala Krushna Tripathy, Sarthak Goel, Anamika Guha

As we approach Web 4.0, which relates to the uprising of internet of things (IoT)-enabled smart manufacturing devices that serve as data generator devices for companies, the responsibility of managing and securing this data is an overhead. Since the data can contain sensitive information, it is vulnerable to cyber-attacks. As advanced encryption-decryption cryptography algorithms are deficient to handle the situation, the uprising of quantum computing is making today's security mechanisms imperiled. Therefore, a quantum wall (QW) needs to be deployed for key generation which can resist potential attacks. Quantum-inspired IoT (QIoT) implies harnessing power imparted by quantum computing (QC) to secure IoT applications. It promises secure management of data throughout its life cycle. This chapter summarizes the recent relevant work conducted in this domain by conducting an intensive literature review around IoT, security implications, and how QC is making an impact in mitigating the cyber risks involved in data transfers in IoT.
