Internet of Things Security with Using Quantum Cryptography

Abstract: Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging Technology with lots of opportunities in future endeavors. It can develop ease on different task for us but on the other hand it causes security threats like data breaches, Data authentication and virus. Some classic cryptography algorithm like RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman) works under the classical computers. But the newly acquired Technology is shifting towards Quantum cryptography easily. Therefore it is much required to design Quantum cryptography algorithm to prevent our system from security breaches. IoT will also be one of the discipline which needs to be secured to prevent any malicious activities. In this paper we are going to review the common security problems in IoT and there presently available solutions with their drawbacks. Then the analysis has been carried out in terms of the advantages and disadvantages of implementing Quantum cryptography for the IoT security. And finally Quantum cryptography is introduced with some of its variations.

Keywords: Quantum cryptography, Quantum computing, cryptography, security, internet of things.
