“…Lattice-based cryptography is a flexible way to create different types of cryptographic primitives, such as encryption, digital signatures, and key sharing protocols. Lattice-based cryptography is safe because it's hard to solve lattice problems, which is thought to be hard even for quantum computers [6]. Because of this, lattice-based encryption methods offer strong protection against both conventional and quantum attackers.…”

New developments in quantum computing have made people worry that current security methods could be broken by quantum attacks. Some mathematical problems are hard to solve, which is how traditional encryption methods like RSA and ECC keep their secrets safe. However, quantum computers might be able to solve these issues a lot faster than regular computers, which makes these methods less safe. Because of this threat, experts have been working hard to make post-quantum cryptography methods that quantum computers can't break. These methods are made to stand up to the strength of quantum algorithms and protect the privacy, integrity, and validity of private data even when quantum attackers are present. Lattice-based cryptography is a potential method for post-quantum encryption. Its security comes from the difficulty of certain lattice problems. Lattice-based methods are thought to be safe from threats from both traditional and quantum computers because they offer good security promises. Lattice-based cryptography is a flexible way to build different types of cryptographic primitives, like encryption, digital signatures, and key sharing protocols. The study of code-based cryptography, which is based on how hard it is to decode some error-correcting codes, is another important advance. Code-based methods have been around for a long time and have been studied a lot, which makes them a good choice for security after quantum computing. Code-based cryptography is also easy to use and has strong security features, which makes it a good choice for real-world situations. Multivariate polynomial cryptography is another possible choice for cryptography after quantum computing. The safety of this method depends on how hard it is to solve systems of multivariate polynomial problems. Multivariate polynomial methods might not be as secure as lattice-based or code-based cryptography, but they are interesting options for some situations and places with limited resources.

Securing Communication with Quantum Key Distribution: Implications and Impact on Network Performance

Abstract: With a fully functional point-to-point quantum key distribution link, we demonstrate secret key retrieval by a pair of encryptors and investigate how their addition impacts key network performance indicators on a 10 Gbit/s data channel.
