Post-Quantum Cryptography

Ask about this topic

Overview

Post-quantum cryptography studies encryption, key exchange, and digital signatures designed to withstand attacks by future quantum computers, especially attacks on widely used public-key systems. Much of the field builds on lattice problems such as learning with errors, alongside hash-based signatures, and evaluates security through mathematical analysis, lattice-solving attacks, and empirical tests. Current work also focuses on replacing classical cryptography in real systems, including constrained devices, while managing compatibility, performance, and implementation risks. A central tension is that schemes must remain secure against improving attacks while being practical to deploy and migrate across long-lived infrastructure.
