Practical considerations on Quantum Key Distribution (QKD)

The advancement of the quantum computing is challenging the foundation of the cryptography by its almost unlimited computation power to predict the secure key that is thought to be absolutely secure based on the currently used algorithms such as the RSA and the Diffie-Hellman and others. The field o...
