Abstract:

As quantum computing advances, traditional cryptographic systems that underpin modern secure communication networks are increasingly at risk. Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) has emerged as a critical solution to secure data against quantum threats. This review examines the impact of PQC on secure communication networks, focusing on current trends, challenges, and future research areas. By exploring recent developments, challenges in implementation, and potential research avenues, we provide a comprehensive overview of PQC's role in safeguarding communication networks in the post-quantum era.
