The emergence of a new era of quantum computing is on the horizon, presenting modern cryptography with a cluster of unprecedented threats.This review delves into the cryptographic techniques that risk being challenged in a postquantum environment and the algorithms that challenge these techniques.We first investigate aspects of traditional cryptography, covering both asymmetric and symmetric cryptography.Then, we analyze quantum computing and its impact on cryptographic techniques, notably Shor's and Grover's algorithms.Finally, we will research quantum-resistant solutions and explore our current status in post-quantum cryptography.This review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the threats posed by quantum computing from a cryptographic standpoint and the approaches available to mitigate these risks for a more secure future.
This article describes the main trends in the development of cryptography, in particular, the need for active research in the field of postquantum cryptography. The purpose of the article was to review the latest trends in the field of post-quantum cryptography, due to the emergence of quantum algorithms, in order to reflect the current problems arising in the field of modern cryptography. The main method of research is the analysis of scientific literature for the period from 2016 to 2022. The use of quantum computer and quantum algorithms will significantly reduce the time of cracking keys with encryption and solve some types of cryptographic hash functions, which will lead to a significant increase in the length of keys and a decrease in performance. Due to the great economic influence of the USA, it is necessary to pay attention to the post–quantum NIST contests: from the algorithms under consideration, lattice-based algorithms will be standardized, which are the most reliable and efficient in terms of performance according to NIST, however, in order not to rely only on this type of algorithms, NIST selected alternative algorithms–isogeny–based, code–based, hash–based. So, there is a need to conduct research on the search for post-quantum algorithms of various types, which is confirmed by various NIST competitions. Post-quantum algorithms based on the computational difficulty of solving systems of many quadratic equations with many variables are also effective, such algorithms have not been considered by NIST, but they are relevant for further research. Since updating protocols, schemes and infrastructure objects must be carried out together with the introduction of new cryptographic algorithms, the replacement of currently used cryptographic algorithms can be very destructive and take decades, re-encryption with such a new algorithm of stored information and keys can also be used.
Information security is a fundamental and urgent issue in the digital transformation era. Cryptographic techniques and digital signatures have been applied to protect and authenticate relevant information. However, with the advent of quantum computers and quantum algorithms, classical cryptographic techniques have been in danger of collapsing because quantum computers can solve complex problems in polynomial time. Stemming from that risk, researchers worldwide have stepped up research on post-quantum algorithms to resist attack by quantum computers. In this review paper, we survey studies in recent years on post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and provide statistics on the number and content of publications, including a literature overview, detailed explanations of the most common methods so far, current implementation status, implementation comparisons, and discussion on future work. These studies focused on essential public cryptography techniques and digital signature schemes, and the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) launched a competition to select the best candidate for the expected standard. Recent studies have practically implemented the public key encryption/key encapsulation mechanism (PKE/KEM) and digital signature schemes on different hardware platforms and applied various optimization measures based on other criteria. Along with the increasing number of scientific publications, the recent trend of PQC research is increasingly evident and is the general trend in the cryptography industry. The movement opens up a promising avenue for researchers in public key cryptography and digital signatures, especially on algorithms selected by NIST.
Quantum cryptography, a branch of cryptography that leverages the principles of quantum mechanics, has emerged as a critical field in the face of the looming quantum computing threat to classical cryptographic systems.
