Title: “KpqC Competition, KpqC Algorithms, and Current Status” |
|
Date : August 27 (Thu) |
Abstract:
The Korean Post-Quantum Cryptography Competition (KpqC Competition) was launched to identify secure and efficient PQC algorithms suitable for national deployment. An equally important objective of the competition is to foster the research capability of the Korean cryptographic community. This talk introduces the progress of the KpqC Competition, followed by a brief overview of the selected KpqC algorithms and their underlying cryptographic foundations. The presentation summarizes the current status of the selected algorithms, including ongoing standardization efforts for the KEM algorithms and continued design refinements of the signature algorithms.
