Quantum Cryptography
Diffie-Hellman is a key exchange protocol that allows two parties to securely share a secret key over a public channel. This protocol relies on the mathematical principles of modular arithmetic and the difficulty of calculating discrete logarithms, enabling secure communication between parties without needing to share the key in advance. Its importance extends to cryptographic protocols, where it plays a crucial role in establishing secure communication channels, as well as in public-key cryptography and its resilience against certain quantum algorithms.
