Side-Channel Analysis for Post-Quantum Cryptology
Agentur für Innovation in der Cybersicherheit GmbH
About
Agentur für Innovation in der Cybersicherheit GmbH - the German Innovation for Cybersecurity - funded by the German Federal Ministry of Defence and the Federal Ministry of the Interior and Home Affairs, has issued PCP (Pre-Commercial Procurement) procedure for a total value of €7 million.
The Challenge
This challenge focuses on advancing the development of post-quantum cryptographic systems that are not only resistant to attacks by classical and quantum computers, but also robust against current and emerging side-channel threats. The goal is to design efficient, holistic countermeasures that minimize system overhead while offering broad protection across various types of side-channel attacks. The PCP seeks low-TRL demonstrators capable of showcasing these secure implementations within internal and external security use cases, ultimately supporting Europe’s transition toward post-quantum cryptography.
