QUID-PRO: Quantum-safe Information Distribution for Cryptographic Protocols

Cryptography protects private information at rest or in transit through computer algorithms. These algorithms use so-called private keys to achieve protection. The QUID-PRO project investigates how to safeguard cryptographic keys against hacking attacks, for cryptography that is secure against quantum computers. The research outcomes will make modern and future cryptography more secure. The project will involve the hiring of two PhD students as well as one postdoc.
