Quantum cryptography. Eye of an observer reflected in a mirror in quantum cryptography apparatus. Quantum cryptography is based on the principle of entanglement, a property of a pair of particles in which a change to one has an instantaneous effect on the other, no matter how far apart they are. Cryptography in this case refers to the encoding of data so that only specified targets can access it. If the sender and the receiver of the data share entanglement then any data is only readable by them alone. This is more secure than existing encryption methods, most of which rely on mathematical algorithms. Photographed at the lab of Anton Zeilinger at Vienna University, Austria

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of quantum cryptography, a cutting-edge technology that ensures utmost security and protection in data transmission. The image showcases the intricate apparatus used in this field, with an observer's eye reflected in a mirror within the setup. Quantum cryptography relies on the principle of entanglement, where any change to one particle instantaneously affects its entangled counterpart, regardless of their physical distance. The concept of cryptography refers to encoding data so that only specific recipients can access it. In quantum cryptography, if both sender and receiver share entanglement, any transmitted information becomes readable exclusively by them. This method surpasses traditional encryption techniques based on mathematical algorithms and offers unparalleled security. Photographed at Vienna University's lab under the guidance of Anton Zeilinger, an esteemed physicist specializing in quantum mechanics, this image highlights Austria's contribution to groundbreaking research. The equipment featured includes lasers emitting beams of coherent light and mirrors essential for manipulating photons during experiments. Quantum cryptography not only revolutionizes internet security but also holds immense potential for advancements like teleportation and secure communication channels. With its promise of unbreakable codes and impenetrable encryption methods, this photograph symbolizes the remarkable progress made in harnessing the power of quantum physics for safeguarding sensitive information in our increasingly interconnected world.
