  Quantum information technology has the potential to revolutionize computing,
communications, and security. To fully realize its potential, quantum
processors with millions of qubits are needed, which is still far from being
accomplished. Thus, it is important to establish quantum networks to enable
distributed quantum computing to leverage existing and near-term quantum
processors into more powerful resources. This paper introduces a protocol to
distribute entanglements among quantum devices within classical-quantum
networks with limited quantum links, enabling more efficient quantum
teleportation in near-term hybrid networks. The proposed protocol uses
entanglement swapping to distribute entanglements efficiently in a butterfly
network, then classical network coding is applied to enable quantum
teleportation while overcoming network bottlenecks and minimizing qubit
requirements for individual nodes. Experimental results show that the proposed
protocol requires quantum resources that scale linearly with network size, with
individual nodes only requiring a fixed number of qubits. For small network
sizes of up to three transceiver pairs, the proposed protocol outperforms the
benchmark by using 17% fewer qubit resources, achieving 8.8% higher accuracy,
and with a 35% faster simulation time. The percentage improvement increases
significantly for large network sizes. We also propose a protocol for securing
entanglement distribution against malicious entanglements using quantum state
encoding through rotation. Our analysis shows that this method requires no
communication overhead and reduces the chance of a malicious node retrieving a
quantum state to 7.2%. The achieved results point toward a protocol that
enables a highly scalable, efficient, and secure near-term quantum Internet.
