The Ship Has Sailed - The NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography Competition

The Ship Has Sailed - The NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography Competition

Explore the NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography standardization process in this invited talk from Asiacrypt 2017. Delve into the challenges posed by quantum computers, various post-quantum cryptography types, and the timeline for developing new standards. Examine the competition's requirements, selection criteria, and the global response through submissions. Gain insights into key establishment, security analysis, and performance considerations for post-quantum algorithms. Learn about the transition plan, involvement of other standards organizations, and future steps in the field of post-quantum cryptography.
