As the world pushes the boundaries of computing and communication, quantum technologies are emerging as the next frontier. Among these, the concept of a quantum internet is generating immense interest. Unlike today’s classical internet, which relies on binary data transmission over electromagnetic signals, the quantum internet aims to use the principles of quantum mechanics—particularly…

Introduction The digital age has revolutionized how information is shared and secured across the globe. Yet, with increasing cyber threats and the rise of quantum computing itself, traditional internet security methods—largely based on classical encryption algorithms—are becoming increasingly vulnerable. In response, researchers and engineers are now envisioning and developing a Quantum Internet, a new…

Introduction: The Next Evolution of Connectivity As we move deeper into the quantum era, a new paradigm in communication is emerging—the Quantum Internet. Unlike today’s classical internet, which transmits bits of information in the form of 0s and 1s, the quantum internet leverages the fundamental properties of quantum mechanics—such as entanglement and superposition—to enable…

Introduction As quantum computing rapidly evolves from theoretical constructs to practical reality, traditional cryptographic systems face an unprecedented challenge. Classical public-key cryptographic algorithms such as RSA, ECC, and DH, which underpin most secure communications today, are vulnerable to Shor’s algorithm—a quantum technique capable of breaking these schemes in polynomial time. While fully capable quantum…

Introduction The rise of quantum computing poses an imminent threat to current cryptographic infrastructures. Algorithms like RSA, ECC, and DSA — the backbone of secure internet communications — are vulnerable to quantum attacks, especially from Shor’s algorithm, which can factor large integers and compute discrete logarithms exponentially faster than classical algorithms. As quantum hardware…
