Постквантовая криптография (PQC)

Защита от квантовых компьютеров.

Post-[Quantum [Cryptography](/ru/terms/quantum-cryptography)](/ru/terms/post-quantum-cryptography) (PQC) refers to cryptographic systems designed to be secure against both classical and quantum computer attacks. Quantum computers running Shor's algorithm could break RSA and ECC in polynomial time, threatening current [blockchain security](/ru/terms/blockchain-security).

Main PQC approaches include: lattice-based (CRYSTALS-Kyber, CRYSTALS-Dilithium—NIST selected), hash-based signatures (SPHINCS+—conservative, well-understood security), code-based (Classic McEliece—long-studied but large keys), and multivariate polynomial systems.

NIST standardized PQC algorithms in 2024: Kyber (key encapsulation), Dilithium (signatures), SPHINCS+ (stateless hash-based signatures), and Falcon (compact signatures). Migration is beginning for critical systems.

Blockchain implications include: replacing ECDSA with PQC signatures (larger signatures increase block space needs), updating key derivation, and handling the 'harvest now, decrypt later' threat (encrypted data stored today could be decrypted when quantum computers arrive). Timeline estimates for cryptographically-relevant quantum computers range from 10-30 years.

🧒 Простыми словами

Обычные пароли в будущем смогут взломать супер-быстрые квантовые компьютеры. Постквантовая криптография — это новые, невероятно сложные математические замки, которые не под силу даже таким мощным машинам.
