Quantum Computing
Quantum computing leverages quantum bits, or qubits, which can exist in multiple states simultaneously, known as superposition. Superposition enables quantum computers to perform parallel computations, leading to exponential speed-ups for certain problems. Quantum algorithms, such as Shor's algorithm for factoring large numbers, have the potential to break current encryption methods.	Image Source

Quantum Communication
Quantum communication uses quantum properties, such as entanglement and superposition, to enable secure and efficient information transfer. Quantum key distribution (QKD) allows for the secure exchange of cryptographic keys, as any eavesdropping attempts would be detectable. Quantum teleportation allows for the transfer of quantum states between distant qubits, enabling long-distance quantum communication.	Image Source
