Securing IoT with Post-Quantum Cryptography 🚀 – Insights from Dr. Reza Azarderakhsh

It has been widely accepted that quantum computer attacks on today’s security are expected to become a reality within the next decade. We believe it is prudent to plan ahead for future needs as it normally takes many years to change cryptosystem deployments. I will talk about quantum-safe solutions, including post-quantum primitives, encryption algorithms and key exchange mechanisms, that we are currently involved and are feasible to be implemented in small and resource-constrained devices. I mainly will discuss the efficiency of implementing isogeny-based cryptography, which are based on hardness of finding maps between elliptic curves, on various Arm platforms and provide the timing and performance results.

Dr. Reza Azarderakhsh is an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering.

This talk was presented at the Arm Research Summit, 17-19 September 2018. Summit 2019 will be taking place in Austin, TX. Visit arm.com/summit for more details!
