DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Research and Markets(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7c8033/quantum_cryptograp) has announced the addition of the "Quantum Cryptography - Patent and Technology Report - Key players, innovators and industry analysis" report to their offering.

This report presents a brief introduction to Quantum Cryptography and related technologies available for securing quantum communication. Quantum Cryptography, utilizing unintuitive Laws of Quantum mechanics provides us a theoretically sound and interesting Cryptographic Methodology for future communication system.

A detailed interactive taxonomy for intellectual property related to Quantum Cryptography is presented covering parts of the Quantum Communication method and devices, Quantum Information Processing, secure key generation and distribution procedure for encrypting messages in quantum domain along with an overview on possible device-based cryptanalytic attacks on various quantum cryptographic techniques. A detailed landscape analysis of patent and non-patent literature is done with a focus on improved device and methodologies for generating and transmitting photons, and detecting the polarization states of the photons in more efficient way to extract information related to it. The research and product development activities of major players in the field of Quantum Cryptography is also captured and analyzed. The final section of the report covers the research and IP trends in this nascent technical domain where newer research methodologies are overcoming challenges related to the real-life commercial implementation of Quantum Cryptography. This final section further gives an insight on issues related to quantum information processing. It also presents the existing and future market predictions and potentials for various sections and methodologies photon generation, polarization and quantum communication.
