Abstract
In this work we review the security vulnerability of quantum crytography with respect to "man-in-the-middle attacks" and the standard authentication methods applied to counteract these attacks. We further propose a modified authentication algorithm which features higher effiency with respect to consumption of mutual secret bits.
