Presented by Douglas Stebila as a part of the 2020 Serene-risc Workshop on The State of Canadian Cybersecurity Conference: Human-Centric Cybersecurity
About the presentation
In this talk, I’ll give an update on the standardization and migration of cryptographic systems to quantum-resistant algorithms. I’ll talk about the current status of the NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography standardization project, then discuss progress towards adapting network protocols to use post-quantum algorithms.
