Every day, it seems, governments and corporations fall victim to data leaks
caused by anonymous online crusaders or foreign terrorist organizations — leaks which
call into question the efficacy of modern computer security measures. Quantum cryptography,
the use of quantum mechanical principles to make and break codes, could alter the way cybercrimes are committed,
Deriving from the Greek words kryptos, for ‘hidden’, and graphein, for ‘writing’, cryptography is defined as the science of writing secret codes. For thousands of years, the practice has been used to protect state secrets and to transmit war strategies. The ancient Greeks wrote messages along cloth wound around sticks of a specific diameter, and the Romans developed the first substitution cipher, called the Caesar Shift, in which each letter in a message was shifted forward a certain number of places. Later ciphers, such as those produced by the Enigma machines used by German forces
