Recently, there has been significant expansion and the discovery of vast opportunities in communication enabled by the Internet of Things (IoT). When implementing IoT-enabled communication, it is crucial to give priority to security as a key area of focus. In network communication that links diverse sources, the generation and exchange of keys will become notably complex because of their constantly changing characteristics. As per analysis, lightweight cryptography is suitable for low-resource smart devices. Nevertheless, depending on the security of traditional cryptographic techniques is vulnerable to potential breaches by emerging quantum computing algorithms. The motivation for our analysis of quantum-based schemes for IoT communication frameworks stems from recent quantum threats to IoT security. Therefore in this paper, we analyzed the IoT security concerns and quantum-based solutions. The main objective of our work is to analyze the quantum-enabled schemes for securing IoT communication framework, the technological shift from classical to quantum cryptography and performance analysis of quantum-enabled schemes. This paper highlights the technical obstacles in schemes based on quantum technology and also performs security analysis by comparing classical and quantum-enabled authentication protocols for secure IoT communication.
