Systematic Literature Review on Quantum Cryptography

Abstract

In the field of cryptography, new tasks are generated when advancement has taken place from conventional computing to quantum computing. In the case of computer security, cryptography had always been a valuable and essential tool. When quantum mechanics principles are applied to cryptography, it gives rise to a new system that will secure communication and also assures that no spying can take place. The work below presents the review on quantum cryptography, which includes the concept of quantum cryptography and what can be its evaluation measures. Articles of quantum cryptography from various databases have been studied. In this SLR various research questions are identified and on the basis of the results of their answers have been formulated for this review along with that various performance measures are also discussed.
