Abstract
Computer science’s branch of cryptography focuses on transforming data into encrypted formats that are imperceptible to unauthorized users. The process of securing format is called encryption. It has been used for centuries to halt unwanted recipients from reading communications. Traditional cryptography techniques either rely on a private key or a public key that is known to everybody. In either scenario, the eavesdroppers are able to identify the key and as a result, discover the message sent without the sender or receiver’s awareness.
A form of encryption known as quantum cryptography (Qcryp) takes advantage of some of the fundamental principles of quantum physics that uses inherent qualities to transmit and secure data in an uncrackable manner. Qcryp is a system that cannot be broken into without the transmitter or recipient of the message being aware of it. Qcryp employs the Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), a method for dispersing ...
