Post Quantum Cryptography
The implementation of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) protocols introduces additional network performance overhead, impacting end-user experience. Testing is essential for developing and deploying cryptographic systems, including PQC-based ones. Post-Quantum Cryptography aims to create secure algorithms against quantum computer threats. Testing assists in several key areas for Post-Quantum Cryptography:
Security Assurance
Algorithm Resistance Testing verifies PQC algorithms' resistance against cryptographic attacks. This includes testing the algorithms under different scenarios, including those that utilize classical and quantum algorithms, to evaluate their resilience.
Performance Evaluation
Computational Efficiency: Testing evaluates PQC algorithms' computational efficiency. This includes measuring encryption/decryption speed, key generation speed, and overall system performance. Ensuring the efficiency of PQC algorithms is crucial for widespread adoption in practical applications.
Interoperability Testing
Integration with Existing Systems: Cryptographic systems often require interaction with established infrastructure and protocols. Testing is essential to guarantee the seamless integration of PQC algorithms into diverse systems, avoiding compatibility issues.
Standardization Compliance
Adherence to Standards: testing confirms PQC algorithms' compliance with established cryptographic standards, promoting interoperability and consistent implementation across platforms.
