About:
This one-day workshop introduces the critical field of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to researchers who need to understand the imminent threat quantum computers pose to digital security and the practical solutions being developed to counter it. We will introduce the core mathematical concepts behind leading PQC algorithms—including lattice-based, hash-based, code-based, multivariate polynomial-based, and isogeny-based cryptography—along with the ongoing standardization process led by NIST.
