The NSA, NIST and Crypto in Court

--

What will be greater in impact than Y2K? Ans: The replacement of our existing public key encryption methods with Post Quantum robust methods. And, so, NIST has been defining new standards for these. The initial winners were mainly lattice methods and were: Kyber (Key Exchange and Public Key encryption) and Dilithium, Falcon, and SPHINCS+ (digital signatures). SPHINCS+ is the only non-lattice method.
