Exploring Post Quantum Cryptography with Quantum Key Distribution for Sustainable Mobile Network Architecture Design

arXiv:2404.10602v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: The proliferation of mobile networks and their increasing importance to modern life, combined with the emerging threat of quantum computing, present new challenges and opportunities for cybersecurity. This paper addresses the complexity of protecting these critical infrastructures against future quantum attacks while considering operational sustainability. We begin with an overview of the current landscape, identify the main vulnerabilities in mobile networks, and evaluate existing security solutions with new post-quantum cryptography (PQC) methods. We then present …
