Post-Quantum Resilience

Definition

Post-quantum resilience refers to a cryptographic system’s ability to resist attacks from future quantum computers. Current encryption methods, including those protecting digital assets, are vulnerable to advanced algorithms executable by sufficiently powerful quantum machines. Post-quantum resilient cryptography involves developing new mathematical schemes that remain secure against these computational threats. This proactive development aims to safeguard long-term data privacy and the integrity of blockchain networks.
