New Tree Quantum Key Agreement Protocol and its Impact on IOT Networks

Abstract

The Internet of Things is revolutionizing the way we interact with the world around us, creating a network of interconnected devices that communicate and share data easily. Quantum Key Agreement represents an exciting new area of cryptographic research, leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics to achieve secure communication. Unlike classical cryptographic methods, which rely on mathematical complexities, QKA utilizes the properties of quantum particles to ensure security. This makes QKA particularly resistant to the future improvements expected with the advent of quantum computing. In this dissertation, we explore the integration of a New Tree Multiparty Quantum Key Agreement within IoT networks. This protocol not only facilitates scalable key management but also enhances the overall security posture of IoT systems.
