Quantum resistant describes cryptographic algorithms or systems designed to withstand attacks from powerful quantum computers. Current public-key cryptography, widely used today, is vulnerable to quantum algorithms that could break its security. Developing quantum-resistant solutions is a critical endeavor to safeguard digital communications and financial transactions against future threats. This field is also known as post-quantum cryptography.
Context
The advent of quantum computing poses a long-term threat to the security of many blockchain networks and digital assets. News in the crypto and cybersecurity sectors frequently discusses the imperative for quantum-resistant solutions to protect private keys and transaction integrity. Research into lattice-based assumptions and other post-quantum cryptographic methods is accelerating to ensure the enduring security of digital currencies and decentralized systems.
