  7. Quantum key distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_key_distribution

    Quantum key distribution ( QKD) is a secure communication method that implements a cryptographic protocol involving components of quantum mechanics. It enables two parties to produce a shared random secret key known only to them, which then can be used to encrypt and decrypt messages. The process of quantum key distribution is not to be ...
