Abstract

Quantum computing, with its potential to solve complex problems exponentially faster than classical computers, is poised to revolutionize various fields, including wireless networks security. This survey paper provides a comprehensive overview of the intersection between quantum computing and wireless networks security. We examine the potential threats quantum computing poses to classical encryption algorithms, such as RSA and ECC, which are foundational to the security of current wireless networks. Additionally, we explore emerging quantum-resistant cryptographic techniques designed to safeguard against these threats. The paper also discusses quantum key distribution (QKD) as a promising solution for achieving theoretically unbreakable encryption in wireless networks. Furthermore, we review the current state of research in applying quantum computing to wireless network security, including its implications for authentication, confidentiality, and integrity. Finally, we identify challenges and future directions for integrating quantum computing into wireless network security, emphasizing the need for continued research to ensure the resilience of wireless networks in the quantum era.
