The term "wireless," as defined in the dictionary, signifies "having no wires." In the context of networking, wireless refers to a computer network where there exists no physical wired connection between the sender and receiver. Instead, communication within the network is established through the utilization of radio waves and/or microwaves. This allows for connectivity without the reliance on physical cables. Addressing Wireless Sensor Network Security Challenges: The Role of Quantum Cryptography in the realm of communication, network security stands out as a critical concern, especially in the face of prevalent cyberattacks. Quantum cryptography, representing the next generation of cryptographic solutions, emerges as a promising candidate to counter these threats. Consequently, the existing landscape of public key cryptography requires adaptation to effectively combat eavesdropping attempts. This paper endeavors to introduce a Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) framework, where both the public key channel and the quantum key channel coexist. The proposed approach outlines a five-step key security process, seamlessly integrating both public key cryptography and quantum key cryptography.
