Muhammad Usman Qureshi
Abstract
Quantum cryptography leverages the principles of quantum mechanics to provide unprecedented levels of security in data transmission. As conventional cryptographic methods face vulnerabilities due to the rise of quantum computing, quantum cryptography presents itself as a formidable alternative. This paper explores the challenges in implementing quantum cryptographic systems, such as technological limitations, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, while highlighting the opportunities it presents in revolutionizing secure communication. This comprehensive study also delves into potential applications, current advancements, and future directions in the field of quantum cryptography.
