Enhancing post-quantum security through hybrid cryptographic systems integrating quantum key distribution

Аннотация

As quantum computing continues to evolve, traditional cryptographic systems face significant vulnerabilities,
especially asymmetric algorithms based on factorization and discrete logarithms. In response, the integration of Quantum
Key Distribution with post-quantum cryptography presents a promising hybrid approach to ensuring long-term data security.
This new topic explores the design and development of cryptographic systems that combine the computational resilience
of post-quantum cryptography algorithms, such as lattice-based cryptography, with the physical security guarantees
provided by Quantum Key Distribution. This topic aims to advance the adoption of quantum-resistant cryptography while
leveraging the unique advantages of QKD to create a robust and future-proof cryptographic ecosystem. The synergy
of physical quantum security and mathematical post-quantum security represents a groundbreaking innovation in
safeguarding sensitive information in the quantum era.
