When it comes to securing systems against quantum computers, there is no one-size-fits-all solution

This article has been indexed from Help Net Security

Quantum computers will rapidly solve complex mathematical problems. This includes the ability to break both RSA and ECC encryption in seconds. In response, NIST has been leading an effort to define new cryptographic algorithms that will withstand attacks from quantum computers. NIST started this process in 2015. Beginning with almost 70 candidate algorithms, NIST narrowed the field down to a set of finalists over 3 selection rounds. We now have a well-defined set of algorithms … More
