quantum-safe
Post-computational security standard
Quantum-safe describes encryption methods designed to resist attacks from quantum computers.
Current cryptographic systems rely on mathematical problems that conventional computers can't solve quickly, but quantum computers could break them.
Quantum-safe algorithms use different mathematical foundations that remain secure even against quantum computing power: The agency is transitioning to quantum-safe encryption standards.
