📖 Key Information
Quantum cryptography is the science of exploiting quantum mechanical properties such as quantum entanglement, measurement disturbance, no-cloning theorem, and the principle of superposition to perform various cryptographic tasks. Historically defined as the practice of encoding messages, a concept now referred to as encryption, quantum cryptography plays a crucial role in the secure processing, storage, and transmission of information across various domains.
One aspect of quantum cryptography is quantum key distribution (QKD), which offers an information-theoretically secure solution to the key exchange problem.
