AI summary

Arrangements for quantum-based encryption are provided. In some aspects, input data and a superposition collapse value associated with the input data may be received from a user computing device. In addition, the superposition collapse value may include a threshold percentage indicating a percentage of quantum bits to be collapsed. The input data may be converted into a set of quantum bits. Superpositions of the set of quantum bits may be collapsed based on the superposition collapse value. In addition, collapsing the superpositions may include forcing each quantum bit of the set of quantum bits to take a single value. An encoded result of the input data may be obtained by determining quantum states of the collapsed set of quantum bits. The encoded result of the input data may be converted into alphanumeric code and stored in a data store with the superposition collapse value associated with the input data.
