After 8 years of research on the methods, the first three quantum-secure PQC algorithms have now been standardized by NIST:
FIPS 203, Module-Lattice-Based Key-Encapsulation Mechanism Standard (ML-KEM) based on Crystals-Kyber
FIPS 204, Module-...
The ongoing development of quantum computers affects the security of currently used encryption and authentication schemes. Therefore, this document presents 'Post Quantum Cryptography' (PQC) and 'Quantum Key Distribution' (QKD). PQC describes software based approaches for quantum safe encryption and...
The ongoing development of quantum computers endangers currently used cryptographic protocols and makes it necessary to deploy quantum secure encryption. An important step is the integration of quantum secure encryption in widely used messenger apps. As explained in a press release from 21.02.2024, ...
Since 2016 a selection process with multiple steps is ongoing where the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) searches and evaluates suitable Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms for digital signatures and encryption for standardization. This is necessary as the continuous dev...
