TU/e algorithm sets new protection standard against quantum threats
While quantum computers hold much promise, they also represent a critical threat to the security of the internet, as they may undo current cryptographic defenses. To develop new quantum-proof cryptography, the leading standards authority NIST has invited researchers all over the world to design solutions. Now, an algorithm developed at the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) has been selected to become a new standard for post-quantum cryptography. Two other TU/e solutions have been chosen as promising runner-ups for further consideration.
