NIST Finalizes Post-Quantum Encryption Standards

by

August 13, 2024 at 04:49PM The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) published three new encryption algorithms as part of its post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standardization project to enhance global cybersecurity. FIPS 203 focuses on general encryption using CRYSTALS-Kyber, while FIPS 204 and 205 aim to protect digital signatures using CRYSTALS-Dilithium and Sphincs+, respectively. NIST … Read more

Post-Quantum Cryptography Standards Officially Announced by NIST – a History and Explanation

by

August 13, 2024 at 08:06AM NIST has formally published three post-quantum cryptography standards resulting from a competition aimed at developing encryption resistant to quantum computing decryption. The standards are ML-KEM, ML-DSA, and SLH-DSA, with a fourth, FN-DSA, selected for future standardization. IBM played a significant role in their development and is actively involved in quantum-safe … Read more
