Quantum computing: Cryptographic perspective

Mayank Purohit, Rahul Singh Chauhan, Ruchira Rawat +2 more

Quantum computers with the ability to solve difficult mathematical problems exponentially faster pose an immediate danger to conventional encryption procedures, which are currently thought to be secure in the world of classical computing. This paper explores the fundamental effects of quantum computing on cryptography, showing how quantum algorithms, like Shor's algorithm, may effectively factor big numbers and solve discrete logarithm issues, making popular encryption techniques susceptible. The study looks into how susceptible traditional encryption methods like RSA and ECC are to quantum assaults, highlighting how urgent it is to switch to quantum-resistant cryptographic solutions. This paper also presents an overview of quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms currently being developed, and investigates quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols as a viable countermeasure. This study highlights the urgent requirement for a proactive strategy in creating quantum-safe cryptographic standards by examining the difficulties presented by quantum computing and assessing the possible directions in post-quantum cryptography. The results underline the need for a united effort from academics, business leaders, and governments to lessen the imminent threat posed by quantum computers and safeguard the integrity and security of digital communication in the future.

Fundamentals, Recent Advances, and Challenges Regarding Cryptographic Algorithms for the Quantum Computing Era

Darlan Noetzold, Valderi Reis Quietinho Leithardt

This book arises from the need to provide a clear and up-to-date overview of the impacts of quantum computing on cryptography. The goal is to provide a reference in Portuguese for undergraduate, master's, and doctoral students in the field of data security and cryptography. Throughout the chapters, we present fundamentals, we discuss classical and post-quantum algorithms, evaluate emerging patterns, and point out real-world implementation challenges. The initial objective is to serve as a guide for students, researchers, and professionals who need to understand not only the mathematics involved, but also its practical implications in security systems and policies. For more advanced professionals, the main objective is to present content and ideas so that they can assess the changes and perspectives in the era of quantum cryptographic algorithms. To that end, the text's structure was designed to be progressive: we begin with essential concepts, move on to quantum algorithms and their consequences (with emphasis on Shor's algorithm), present issues focusing on "families" of post-quantum schemes (based on lattices, codes, hash functions, multivariate, isogenies), analyze the state of the art in standardization (highlighting the NIST process), and finally, discuss migration, interoperability, performance, and cryptographic governance. We hope that this work will assist in the formation of critical thinking and informed technical decision-making, fostering secure transition strategies for the post-quantum era.

Quantum vs. Classical Approaches: A Comparative Study and Future Perspectives

Shailesh Palavakar

The paper provides an exploration of quantum computing, emphasizing its potential and challenges. It begins with the fundamentals of quantum mechanics and differentiates between classical and quantum computing, focusing on concepts like qubits, superposition, and entanglement. The authors identify the existing limitations in practical quantum applications, particularly within the Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) era, where issues like noise in quantum circuits hinder scalability and reliability. The paper addresses the need for advancements in hardware, error correction techniques, and practical algorithms tailored for current technological constraints. Additionally, it discusses the implications of quantum computing on cryptography, underscoring the vulnerability of traditional cryptographic methods and the urgency for postquantum cryptographic solutions. The methodology involves literature review, expert consultations, and bibliometric analysis to gauge global research trends in quantum computing. The paper highlights crucial research gaps, particularly in the development of scalable quantum algorithms suitable for near-future applications.
