P1 – Future Public-Key Encryption and Signature Schemes

The project develops practical and post-quantum secure lattice-based cryptography. It provides complexity predictions for basis reduction algorithms and assesses the hardness of special instances of lattice problems in the presence of parallel and quantum computers. It analyzes and optimizes public-key encryption, digital signatures, key exchange, and advanced primitives. This includes providing security reductions in quantum security models, secure parameter selection, as well as side-channel and fault-attack resistant implementations.
