Abstract
The Quantum Key Distribution is a technique to create a secret key, which is used to encode and decode the transferred data between sender and receiver. AK15 protocol was presented to stand against some quantum attacks. One of these attacks is Man-In-The-Middle Attack (MIMA), where it takes an advantage of missing the authentication between the communicated parties. The AK15 sets up a confidence connection by submitting an EPR pair before using a quantum channel. The AK15 has ability to utilize a classical channel in limited usage. Also, the data that should be sent by the classical channel is unknown even an eavesdropper compromised it. The reality of robust this technique because the data submitted by the classical channel represents the type of gate that gives the receiver a chance to figure the qubits without extra communications.
