The Ekert Protocol [pdf]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
A brief history of Quantum Cryptography needed in order to understand the 1991 Ekert protocol is discussed. In particular, the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen thought experiment and its relation to the Ekert protocol is described. The violation of Bell’s theorem that results from measuring states described by Ekert is explained. Error Correction and Privacy Amplification techniques that are associated with standard protocols are briefly discussed.
