Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC): New Algorithms For A New Era

By Rambus - 10 Jan, 2024 - Comments: 0

Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), also known as Quantum Safe Cryptography (QSC), refers to cryptographic algorithms designed to withstand attacks by quantum computers. Quantum computers will eventually become powerful enough to break public key-based cryptography, also known as asymmetric cryptography. Public key-based cryptography is used to protect everything from your online communications... » read more
