-The main goal of this paper is combining the curve security methods with quantum cryptography concepts in order to increase the capability of quantum cryptography methods that used for key distribution and increase the randomness for quantum cryptography protocols. This paper produced a new approach depend on the generate curve and descript this curve by using quantum cryptography concepts, the curve description will be sent to the other party to agree about the key depending on the suggested protocol that produced in this paper. Curve security involves the process of protecting the shape of the curve from reproduced and as a result, protecting the whole document from being regenerated by any counterfeiting person. On the other hand, the strength of quantum cryptography is based on the quantum behavior of the photons when it is measured in a different basis; it is resulted in a random value and information destruction. The combination of the two cryptography direction guaranteed that the resulted key have the required randomness. The key is tested using the different randomness tests, which prove the high randomness of the keys that are resulted with this approach.

Quantum cryptography is based on quantum mechanics to guarantee secure communication.It allows two parties to produce a shared random bit string known only to them.These random bits can be used as a key to encrypt and decrypt messages.The most important and unique property of quantum cryptography is the ability of the two communicating users to detect the presence of any third party trying to gain knowledge of the key.It is based on fundamental aspects of quantum mechanics.By using quantum entanglement or quantum super positions and transmitting information in quantum states, a communication system can be implemented which detects eavesdropping.Quantum cryptography is used to produce and distribute a key, not to transmit any message data.This key along with certain encryption algorithm, is used to encrypt (and decrypt) a message, which can then be transmitted over a standard communication channel.This paper concentrates on comparison between classical and quantum cryptography as well as survey on various quantum key distribution protocols used to generate and distribute the key among communicating parties.
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.
All Classical cryptographic methods used in our life based on mathematical ideas & computational assumption are actually unsafe, so quantum cryptography is proposed nowadays Quantum key distribution (QKD) promises secure key agreement by using quantum mechanical systems. QKD will be an important part of future cryptographic infrastructures. It can provide long-term confidentiality for encrypted information without reliance on computational assumptions. Although QKD still requires authentication to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks. Firstly, In this paper At quantum key distribution protocol process is introduced. Secondly, several improvements to the basic steps of two references are reviewed because of its defects, mainly about identity authentication in order to prevent communication partners' counterfeit, including errors removing, estimating Attacker's information, secrecy enhancement, etc. At last, based upon original improvements reserved selectively, the whole process of quantum key distribution protocol after improvement & then comparison is introduced in detail.

Quantum key distribution is a sub topic under quantum cryptography where two parties distribute a shared random bit string known only to them and which can be used as a key to encrypt and decrypt messages. This paper proposes a novel method of QKD to distribute the secret key. The basic concept of QKD remains the same but the process by which the key is exchanged between the two parties is different and is much more secure than the existing QKD protocols. The proposed method exploits the concept of hamming weight.
Quantum cryptography provides secret communication, which offers various security factors like confidentiality, integrity, and authentication assurance based on the law of physics. The law of physics states that quantum computing can also be applied into the communication sector, which is particularly in the field of cryptography. Then quantum can significantly distribute the data securely by applying quantum key distribution (QKD), quantum key sharing, etc. In the classical cryptography, it is difficult to compute secret keys using security concepts like key exchange and authentication, etc., and it fails to provide adequate protection during data communication as it needs some effective computation in terms of security. The lack of security in the data communication can be overcome by using the concept of quantum computing. Generally, in quantum computing, elementary quantum systems like polarized photons are used to transmit digital information based on the principle of uncertainty as it gives rise to a significant phenomenon of effective security in terms of communication compared to existing concepts related to cryptography. In quantum computing, the detection ratio for identifying the data which are sent through a communication channel is more difficult as it uses qubits and photons to represent the data that are sent. Quantum channels are used to distribute the information between two users as it passes through the unprotected classical channels as it is unknown to anyone else. Assuming that Alice and Bob use a latent noise channel to send a key, reconciliation is the process of correcting errors between Alice and Bob’s version of the key. This is done by public discussion, which leaks some information about the secret key to an undercover. This chapter gives a discussion on QKD concepts as it helps to provide a secure communication, where the information is broadcasting through a quantum channel. Finally, the various existing quantum protocols are described in relation to some security measures based on QKD, and the standard QKD protocol of BB84 is discussed.
