Abstract

Nowadays security of presenting for eavesdropping, brute-force attacks, information, and spoofing etc. are decreasing. To increase the protection, I also need to use a good combination of cryptography methods. In such a combination I am going to look at the combination of Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and Honey Encryption (HE) are two advanced cryptographic mechanisms widely used in data security. The primary goal of this study is to critically assess the efficacy, implementation challenges, and practical applications of QKD and HE in terms of efficiency security against eavesdropping and brute force attacks. In this paper, I critically analyze their theoretical fundamentals, effectiveness, and their practical applications. I find out that the fundamental principles and mechanisms underlying the two cryptographic techniques contribute to their respective security advantages. The main contribution of this paper is to enlighten policymakers, industry leaders, and the public on the need to commit research resources and apply the smart cryptography option to protect the digital environment. This research seeks to make its contribution to the creation of stronger, more resilient, and quantum-immune digital environments.
