On February 22, 2024 at 14:00 EET, Nicoleta Dumitru (University of Bucharest) will give a talk in the Logic Seminar.
Title: (Post-)Quantum Cryptography
Abstract:
In this talk, we are going to discuss two areas of cryptography in full development, namely quantum and post-quantum cryptography. The main purpose is to clearly explain the algorithms that are the basis of the threat to the security of communication as we know it now, as well as those that can be used as substitutes for the widely used cryptosystems. Another purpose of this talk is to draw attention to the fact that modern cryptography is under the light of a high threat from the quantum universe if a computer that obeys the principles of quantum mechanics becomes truly functional.
The talk will take place physically at FMI (Academiei 14), Hall 214 “Google”.
