Engineering post-quantum cryptography
Our digital society critically relies on protection of data and communication against espionage and cyber crime. Underlying all protection mechanisms is cryptography, which we are using daily to protect, for example, internet communication or e-banking. This protection is threatened by the dawn of universal quantum computers, which will break large parts of the cryptography in use today. Transitioning current cryptographic algorithms to crypto that resist attacks by large quantum computers, so called "post-quantum cryptography", is possibly the largest challenge applied cryptography is facing since becoming a domain of public research in the second half of the last century. Large…
