Popis: As quantum computing advances, traditional cryptographic security measures, including token obfuscation, are increasingly vulnerable to quantum attacks. This paper introduces a quantum-enhanced approach to token obfuscation leveraging quantum superposition and multi-basis verification to establish a robust defense against these threats. In our method, tokens are encoded in superposition states, making them simultaneously exist in multiple states until measured, thus enhancing obfuscation complexity. Multi-basis verification further secures these tokens by enforcing validation across multiple quantum bases, thwarting unauthorized access. Additionally, we incorporate a quantum decay protocol and a refresh mechanism to manage the token life-cycle securely. Our experimental results demonstrate significant improvements in token security and robustness, validating this approach as a promising solution for quantum-secure cryptographic applications. This work not only highlights the feasibility of quantum-based token obfuscation but also lays the foundation for future quantum-safe security architectures.
