Project description
We are developing algorithms and protocols to protect data from attacks from quantum computers. We are creating secure communication in a quantum world.
In lattice cryptography, we will use a less complex method of decomposing the basis applied to the Gaussian sampling process.
In code cryptography, we will explore an innovative way of concatenating raptor codes. We will use a candidate Low Rank Parity check code for its security capabilities.
Finally, we will generalise the New Mersenne number transform to the Polynomial convolution of Multivariate Quadratic Polynomials. Its irreducibility will be a basis for its use for constructing ideal lattices.
This method of decomposing the basis and convolution would give improved performance and efficiency. Also, the concatenation of the codes would provide better semantic security against a chosen cipher text attack.
