Abstract: In view of the safety problem of current mobile security payment encryption schemes, this paper proposed a quantum key-based MSP (mobile security payment) scheme. First, this scheme introduced quantum encryption technology to solve the symmetric key problem between the payment platform server and the commercial supermarket server. Then, the quantum key was safely obtained and the QR (quick response) code was generated by using the proposed quantum key gateway. Finally, the mobile device finished the payment according to the one-time pad encryption scheme. Compared with the existing schemes, the proposed scheme can fully employ the advantages of quantum encryption technology. It can also resist multiple security threats by using the quantum key gateway. Under the real quantum key distribution and quantum key gateway environment, the feasibility and effectiveness of this scheme were proven by experimental results.
