Abstract

The article delves into the security analysis of a single-state circular mediated semi-quantum key distribution (CMSQKD) protocol, which allows two communicating users to establish secure keys with the help of a third-party server. It explores the protocol's resistance to attacks, including those by a potentially dishonest third-party server. The authors derive the key rate and establish a threshold for the error rate to ensure the protocol's security. Additionally, the article proposes a multiple-user CMSQKD protocol, expanding the number of users who can share secure keys. The paper concludes with a summary of the protocol's security and potential future work.
