Quantum-Resistant Public-Key Cryptography
Standardised lattice- and hash-based key establishment and signature algorithms let networks and systems keep confidentiality and authentication intact against future cryptanalytically relevant quantum computers, with government policy frameworks driving their substitution for RSA and elliptic-curve schemes.
Developed mainly in: United StatesImpacting: North America, Europe, Rest of Asia and India
NIST released IR 8547, authored by Moody, Perlner, Regenscheid, Robinson and Cooper, setting out how quantum-vulnerable public-key algorithms map onto approved post-quantum signature and key-establishment standards. The report underpins Executive Order 14412 and OMB Memorandum M-26-15, which require agencies to migrate their most sensitive systems first.
