A Survey on Quantum Key Distribution Protocols Jasleen Kour, Saboor Koul and Prince Zahid Baba Ghulam Shah Badshah University, India ABSTRACT  Quantum cryptography is based on quantum mechanics to guarantee secure communication. It allows two parties to produce a shared random bit string known only to them. These random bits can be used as a key to encrypt and decrypt messages. The most important and unique property of quantum cryptography is the ability of the two communicating users to detect the presence of any third party trying to gain knowledge of the key. It is based on fundamental aspects of quantum mechanics. By using quantum entanglement or quantum super positions and transmitting information in quantum states, a communication system can be implemented which detects eavesdropping. Quantum cryptography is used to produce and distribute a key, not to transmit any message data. This key along with certain encryption algorithm, is used to encrypt (and decrypt) a mes...

Engineering College, India Abstract The term malware stands for malicious software. It is a program installed on a system without the knowledge of owner of the system. It is basically installed by the third party with the intention to steal some private data from the system or simply just to play pranks. This in turn threatens the computer’s security, wherein computer are used by one’s in day-to-day life as to deal with various necessities like education, communication, hospitals, banking, entertainment etc. Different traditional techniques are used to detect and defend these malwares like An...
