Post-Quantum Cryptosystems

Catalog description

Covers fundamentals of Shor's attack against conventional cryptography and notions of quantum-resistant cryptosystems. Includes the main lattice-based schemes for encryption, signatures, and homomorphic encryption, as well as code-based encryption, hash-based, and multivariate digital signatures. Additionally, highlights research problems and deployment issues of the technique. Prerequisite: TCSS 543.
