Abstract

In the last decade, development in quantum computing has threatened the security of current public-key cryptography. For this reason, the American National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has organized a competition-like process to
standardize new quantum-resistant public-key encryption and digital signature schemes. This research project aims to give a general overview of post-quantum lattice-based cryptography and analyze and compare the submitted lattice-based public-key encryption schemes over performance, security, distinguishing features and potential vulnerabilities
