Wireless body sensor network (WBSN) is an interdisciplinary field that could permit continuous health monitoring with constant clinical records updates through the Internet. WBAN is a special category of wireless networks. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic creates the situation to monitor the patient remotely following the social distance. WBSN provides the way to effectively monitor the patient remotely with social distance. The data transmitted in WBSN are vulnerable to attacks and this is necessary to take security procedure like cryptographic protocol to protect the user data from attackers. Several physiological sensors are implanted in the human body that will collect various physiological updates to monitor the patient's healthcare data remotely. The sensed information will be transmitted wirelessly to doctors all over the world. But it has too many security threats like data loss, masquerade attacks, secret key distribution problems, unauthorized access, and data confidentiality loss. When any attackers are attacking the physiological sensor data, there is a possibility of losing the patient's information. The creation, cancellation, and clinical data adjustment will produce a mass effect on the healthcare monitoring system. Present-day cryptographic calculations are highly resistant to attacks, but the only weak point is the insecure movement of keys. In this paper, we look into critical security threats: secure key distribution. While sharing the secret key between communicating parties in the wireless body sensor networks in the conventional method like via phone or email, the attackers will catch the private key. They can decrypt and modify more sensitive medical data. It can cause a significant effect like death also. So need an effective, secure key distribution scheme for transmission of human body health related data to medical professional through wireless links. Moreover, a new enhanced BB84 Quantum cryptography protocol is proposed in this paper for sharing the secret key among communicating parties in a secure manner using quantum theory. Besides, a bitwise operator is combined with quantum concepts to secure the patient's sensed information in the wireless environment. Instead of mail and phone via sharing secret key, quantum theory with the bitwise operator is used here. Therefore, it is not possible to hack the secret key of communication. The body sensor's constrained assets as far as battery life, memory, and computational limit are considered for showing the efficiency of the proposed security framework. Based on experimental results, it is proven that the proposed algorithm EBB84QCP provides high secure key distribution method without direct sharing the secret key and it used the quantum mechanism and bitwise operator for generating and distributing secret key value to communicating parties for sensitive information sharing in the wireless body sensor networks.

“…Grounding these theoretical discussions into practical validations, empirical studies implement and scrutinize cryptographic protocols, exemplified by the BB84 quantum key distribution protocol [11]. These experiments bridge theoretical expectations with practical implementations, encompassing statistical analyses while illuminating the tangible realization of qubits, quantum gates, and their implications in secure communication.…”

In the overall context of enhanced application of quantum computing into multitude of areas, the paper explores and implements classical encryption algorithms both in traditional and quantum computing environments. Towards this, the classical encryption algorithms such as Blowfish, RSA and ECC are executed in both classical and quantum environments. The result shows that the key generated in the classical hardware is limited to 64-bit as envisaged; the quantum key is generated found to be complex as the instruction set changes from classical instruction set to quantum instruction set. Further, the additional factor of randomness in quantum computing increases the security of the cipher text, which is transmitted over the internet, showing insights for practical applications.

“…In a paper about quantum key distribution by Al-Mubayedh [1] he had done research about quantum cryptography on IBM QX .The paper explained the quantum key distribution algorithm and run it on IBM QX .In another paper on quantum cryptography done by S. Mitra, et al, [2] had done a comparison between the classical computation and the quantum computation. The comparison proved that most of the algorithms that is used by public key encryption and other encryption are not secure and can be broken by quantum computations.…”

We are Currently in the NISQ(noisy intermediate scale quantum) era. Current Quantum computers have a high noise error rate. With the increasing number of qubits every year we can develop fault tolerant quantum systems which have immense power to change our current computing power. Current quantum systems have shown to have the potential to break the classical RSA algorithm using shors algorithm. With more development and increase in number of qubits available it could easily break the current security systems of our computing. In future we could transmit data safely using the same quantum principles in the post quantum cryptography era. Quantum key distribution could be the future protocol used to transfer our secure information without getting hacked even by using quantum computing and break other quantum principles like shors algorithm which can break current encryption techniques like the RSA algorithms. We need to develop Quantum network infrastructure so we can implement the quantum key distribution algorithm in the future to enable secure transmission of data.
