Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a cutting-edge technology that continues to evolve. The IoT is an integral part of our lives today. It serves as a direct service provider in our surroundings through connected sensor-based networks. It also offers us various value-added services over cellular platforms, both directly and indirectly. Despite all these advantages, there is a demanding need for enhanced security to counter existing security threats including data breaches, virus propagation, side-channel attacks, and authentication issues, are associated with IoT. Consequently, it is imperative to employ methods that bolster IoT security and safeguard our sensitive data. Emphasizing the need for stronger security, this paper highlights the transition to Quantum Cryptography (QC) to protect IoT devices amid their expanding commercial use. The Quantum Bit Error Rate (QBER) is also proposed as a key solution, employing error-correcting servers for secure quantum communication
