This is a perfect balance of elegant design and outstanding function. With the proliferation of quantum computing brings the danger of unauthorized decryptions, and quantum key distribution is a preemptive measure to mitigate cyber security risks. The photon-based communications are conceptualized and represented by a simple design of ingenuity with a clear and shaded contrast.
