Definition ∞ Quantum-Secure Zero-Knowledge refers to cryptographic protocols that provide zero-knowledge proofs while remaining resistant to attacks from quantum computers. These protocols allow one party to prove knowledge of a secret to another without revealing the secret itself, even if the adversary possesses a quantum computer. Developing such systems is essential for long-term cryptographic security in a post-quantum era.
Context ∞ The advent of quantum computing poses a future threat to many current cryptographic standards, driving significant research into quantum-secure solutions, including zero-knowledge proofs. News and academic discourse frequently highlight progress in post-quantum cryptography, emphasizing its importance for the future resilience of digital assets and blockchain networks.
