Google Outlines Implementation of NIST's Post-Quantum Cryptography Standard
HPCWire, Friday, August 16th, 2024
In this recent blog post, Google's Royal Hansen and Phil Venables provide an in-depth look at the newly finalized post-quantum cryptography standards released by NIST.
They explore what these standards mean for the future of encryption, how Google is already implementing them, and offer guidance for organizations preparing for the transition to a quantum-resistant security landscape.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) just released three finalized standards for post-quantum cryptography (PQC) covering public key encapsulation and two forms of digital signatures. In progress since 2016, this achievement represents a major milestone towards standards development that will keep information on the Internet secure and confidential for many years to come.
