Closure | Post-quantum cryptography is too damn big.
2.5 parsecs away

Travel
| | Large-scale quantum computers are capable of breaking all of the common forms of asymmetric cryptography used on the Internet today. Luckily, they don't exist yet. The Internet-wide transition to post-quantum cryptography began in 2022 when NIST announced their final candidates for key exchange and signatures in the NIST PQC competition. There is plenty written about the various algorithms and standardization processes that are underway. The conventional wisdom is that it will take a long time to transit...

Asymmetric Cryptographic Commitments - Dhole Moments
2.4 parsecs away

Travel
| | Recently, it occurred to me that there wasn't a good, focused resource that covers commitments in the context of asymmetric cryptography. I had covered confused deputy attacks in my very short (don't look at the scroll bar) blog post on database cryptography., and that's definitely relevant. I had also touched on the subject of commitment...
