1. What is Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC)?
2. PQC Algorithm Categories
3. Focus on Multivariate Schemes
UOV (Unbalanced Oil and Vinegar)
Rainbow (Layered UOV)
4. Traditional vs. PQC Comparison
| Algorithm Type | Traditional (Vulnerable) | PQC Example | Advantages |
|---|---|---|---|
| Public Key Encryption | RSA | KYBER (lattice) | Resists Shor's algorithm |
| Digital Signatures | ECDSA | Rainbow (multivariate) | NP-hard base, quantum secure |
| Hash Functions | SHA-256 | SPHINCS+ (hash) | Double length resists Grover |
