Post-quantum cryptography
New mathematical protections designed to run on ordinary computers while resisting attacks from powerful quantum computers.
Research
We study how quantum technologies affect secure communication and how organizations can move toward protections designed to withstand future attacks.
Research priorities
New mathematical protections designed to run on ordinary computers while resisting attacks from powerful quantum computers.
Ways to use quantum physics to exchange encryption keys and reveal certain kinds of interception.
Practical methods for bringing stronger protections into the networks, services, and infrastructure people depend on.
How we work
Security does not improve through theory alone. Useful solutions must be understandable, testable, and practical to operate.
Study promising approaches and identify the questions that matter most for public safety and reliable communications.
Evaluate how techniques perform, where they fail, and what is needed to deploy them responsibly.
Publish useful findings, explain results clearly, and work with others who can turn knowledge into public benefit.
The goal
We want decision-makers, builders, and communities to have trustworthy evidence they can use when planning for a changing security landscape.
