# Exploring Quantum Cryptography
Welcome to my **Quantum Cryptography Project**! This resource delves into the fascinating world of quantum cryptography, exploring algorithms, concepts, and their implementation using the **Qiskit** library in Python. Inspired by my report in the **[Deakin Maths Yearbook 2023](https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-3336557334/view)**, this is a growing project designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to quantum cryptography.
---
## About the Project
This project includes **Jupyter notebooks** covering topics like:
- Basics of quantum cryptography.
- Quantum algorithms such as **Shor's algorithm** and its implications.
- Practical demonstrations using **Qiskit**.
- Mathematics behind quantum cryptographic concepts.

## What is Quantum Cryptography?
Quantum cryptography uses principles of **quantum mechanics** to create secure communication systems. It leverages the unpredictability of quantum states and their sensitivity to measurement to detect eavesdropping, ensuring secure communication.
