A practical software library has been produced which supports variable length implementation of the ECCbased ElGamal cryptosystem. More importantly, this scalable architecture of the design enables the ECC being used in restricted platforms as well as high-end servers based on Intel Pentium CPU. Applications such as electronic commerce security, data encryption communication, etc.are thus made possible for real time and effective ECC.展开更多

Quantum-safe implementations within existing and future Internet of Things infrastructure are discussed, along with quantum vulnerabilities in public key infrastructure and symmetric cryptographic algorithms. Other relevant non-encryption-specific areas within cybersecurity are similarly raised. The evolution and expansion of cyberwarfare as well as new developments in cyber defense beyond post-quantum cryptography and quantum key distribution are subsequently explored, with an emphasis on public and private sector awareness and vigilance in maintaining strong security posture.展开更多
