Cybersecurity for Digital Payments Biometrics, Quantum Cryptography, and Economic Growth

This research explores the integration of <b>cybersecurity measures</b> into <b>digital payment systems</b>, focusing on the transformative role of <b>biometrics</b> and <b>quantum cryptography</b>. As the global economy becomes increasingly dependent on digital transactions, ensuring the security and privacy of these payments is critical. The study investigates the effectiveness of <b>biometric authentication</b>—such as fingerprint scanning and facial recognition—in reducing fraud and enhancing user convenience. Additionally, it delves into the potential of <b>quantum cryptography</b> to safeguard payment systems against emerging cyber threats, particularly those posed by quantum computing.The research also examines the <b>economic impact</b> of secure payment systems, demonstrating how robust cybersecurity fosters <b>financial inclusion</b>, <b>market stability</b>, and long-term <b>economic growth</b>. By combining innovative technologies, this paper provides valuable insights into securing digital payments and advancing the global economy while highlighting future challenges and the need for scalable solutions.
