The Economy of Quantum Cryptography in Cybersecurity

While quantum cryptography holds immense potential in securing communication against cyber threats, its current high cost and complex implementation requirements limit widespread adoption. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), often the most vulnerable to cyber attacks, may find it particularly challenging to implement such technology. This economic and practical accessibility barrier suggests that while quantum cryptography could significantly enhance security postures, it is not the stand-alone solution in the current cybersecurity landscape.
