Post-Quantum Cryptography
Post-Quantum Cryptography refers to cryptographic methods designed to secure data against potential threats posed by quantum computers. Unlike traditional cryptographic systems, which rely on the difficulty of problems like factoring large numbers, these new methods are built on mathematical problems that are believed to be hard even for quantum computers to solve.
As quantum computing technology advances, there is a growing concern that it could break existing encryption methods, such as those used in RSA and ECC. Post-Quantum Cryptography aims to create algorithms that can protect sensitive information in a future where quantum computers are widely available.
