Part 2/2: Introduction to the new post-quantum standards
NIST has recently standardised ML-KEM and ML-DSA for post-quantum key exchange and digital signatures, respectively. These algorithms are based on new assumptions from lattices.
This workshop will start with the basics, explain what lattices are, show how we can build cryptography from them, and end with a comprehensive understanding of the new standards. This will be the public-key cryptography everyone uses going forward.
Participants should have some intermediate experience with existing public-key cryptography (DH, RSA, ECC) to benefit the most from this workshop; no expert knowledge is needed.
