| Abstract | The rapidly advancing quantum computers challenge the cryptographic systems that are protecting today's digital infrastructure, including banking, healthcare, government services, and cloud platforms. As the new standardized post-quantum cryptographic (PQC) algorithms are slower and more complex than current cryptographic methods, the deployment of PQC algorithms become challenging. This project improves both the performance and security of the new PQC algorithms, enabling their wide adoption in |
