POST-QUANTUM CRYPTOGRAPHIC ALGORITHMS
Περίληψη
Rapid advancements in Quantum Computing pose significant challenges to the security of modern cryptographic systems, highlighting the need for post-quantum cryptographic solutions. As part of our research activities, we investigate the theoretical foundations, security, efficiency, and practical applications of post-quantum cryptography, with particular emphasis on lattice-based cryptographic systems.
Our research focuses on algorithms such as GGH, NTRU, Learning With Errors (LWE), and Ring-LWE, examining the mathematical principles underlying their security against classical and quantum attacks.
Particular emphasis is placed on the development and optimization of novel LWE-based cryptographic protocols. We are developing a system that combines a key exchange mechanism with public-key encryption to enable secure one-to-one communication. Additionally, we evaluate its security properties, computational efficiency, and potential integration into modern communication platforms. Through this research, we aim to contribute to the advancement of lattice-based cryptography and the development of reliable solutions for secure communication in the post-quantum era.
