Quantum Cryptography: Development and Standardization of Quantum-Resistant Encryption Methods
With the advancement of quantum computing, traditional encryption methods like RSA and ECC may become insecure, as powerful quantum computers could solve the mathematical problems they rely on much faster. To address this challenge, the development and standardization of "quantum-resistant" or post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is underway.
Quantum-Resistant Encryption Methods
- Post-quantum cryptography comprises cryptographic techniques that are considered secure even against quantum computer attacks. Key categories include:
- Lattice-Based Cryptography: Based on multidimensional lattice structures, which remain hard to solve even for quantum computers.
- Hash-Based Cryptography: Considered safe for digital signatures, as it doesn’t rely on number-theoretic problems.
- Code-Based Cryptography: Decoding linear codes is a ....
