Quantum cryptography is the science of exploiting quantum mechanical properties such as quantum entanglement, measurement disturbance, no-cloning theorem, and the principle of superposition to perform various cryptographic tasks. Historically defined as the practice of encoding messages, a concept since referred to as encryption, quantum cryptography plays a crucial role in the secure processing, storage, and transmission of information across various domains.
