Quantum Cryptography for the Enterprise

By Bhagvan Kommadi and Sudin Baraokar

This book provides a comprehensive discussion of how quantum cryptography is changing cybersecurity. It starts by emphasizing the importance of quantum cryptography in next-generation security frameworks, focusing on the threats to classical cryptography and the economic implications of emerging technologies like AI and IoT. It then provides an overview of existing cryptographic methods and stresses the need to move to quantum-based solutions for better data protection and access control. It covers the fundamental principles of quantum cryptography, specifically its role in identity and access management and the concept of "Trust Exchange." It also discusses quantum satellite communications, quantum networks, and the creation of a quantum internet to show how these technologies improve secure communication. This is followed by a review of the development of digital signatures and digital identity systems, demonstrating how quantum algorithms are making traditional methods resistant to quantum attacks. The cybersecurity section introduces quantum-resistant cryptosystems and ledgers and contrasts classical and quantum cryptographic algorithms. Coverage concludes with a roadmap for implementing quantum cryptography in businesses, outlining the steps needed for digital transformation, change management, and the integration of quantum-based cybersecurity applications.
