Pursuing Fundamental Theory and Applied Technology of Cryptography That Is Secure in an Environment in Which Quantum Computers Are Widespread
Masayuki Abe · NTT technical review · 2024
Cryptographic technology based on fundamental theories that are unshakeable even in the era of quantum computers -Could you tell us about your current research?I became an NTT Fellow in 2022, and am research-ing cryptography under the new structure of the Abe Research Laboratory.Research on cryptography atNTT is roughly categorized into three areas based on periods in chronological order: "present," "near future," and "distant future" (Fig. 1).The critical points concerning these categorizations are whether the period is before or after the advent of general-purpose Pursuing Fundamental Theory and Applied Technology of Cryptography That Is Secure in an Environment in Which Quantum Computers Are WidespreadFront-line Researchers
