Abstract

One of the biggest concerns among cybersecurity professionals these days is the hype around quantum computing, its incomprehensible power, and its implications. The advancement in quantum computing has the potential to revolutionize our daily lives, but it can also completely break down the Internet as we know it. Mathematicians and physicists have developed algorithms based on quantum computing, which can change the Internet security paradigm. This article discusses quantum computing key concepts, with a special focus on quantum Internet, quantum key distribution, and related challenges.
