Abstract
In our digital era, communication security is of utter importance and this is where cryptography comes into play. Cryptography is the enabling factor to perform encryption and authentication algorithms which are necessary to guarantee the legitimacy of any given data. The most widespread algorithms are based on so called hard mathematical problems, which are computationally unfeasible to solve in reasonable time. This principles are believed to provide a sufficient degree of security. However, with the advent of efficient quantum computers the above mentioned algorithms will not be resistant enough to protect data. Even if such quantum computers are still not available, starting in the 2015 the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) launched the public standardization process for Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms.
These algorithms are designed to be run on classical computing systems but still offering a security level which is believed enough to be resistant to quantum computer attacks
