Publisher's Synopsis
The Next Era of Unbreakable Digital Security: Post-Quantum Cryptography
The cryptographic systems that safeguard sensitive data, financial transactions, and contemporary digital communications are in danger of being destroyed by the development of quantum computing. Critical infrastructure may soon be exposed to quantum assaults when traditional encryption techniques like RSA and ECC become outdated. This book offers a thorough examination of post-quantum cryptography (PQC), the nascent field devoted to creating encryption techniques that are resistant to quantum errors. To help readers comprehend and get ready for the shift to quantum-safe security, author Cyrus Nexeon deconstructs the intricacies of PQC and provides both theoretical insights and real-world applications. What You'll Learn:- The influence of quantum computing on contemporary cryptographic algorithms - Important post-quantum cryptographic methods, such as hash-, lattice-, and code-based encryption
- The future of PQC and the standardization initiatives of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
- Workable plans for implementing post-quantum security in government and business systems
- Applications in the real world and industry uptake of quantum-resistant cryptography
