Security evaluations of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) primitives

HORIZON-CL3-2025-02-CS-ECCC-04

Expected Outcome:

Expected Impact: Action launched by the ECCC to incorporate ‘expected impact’ language set out in the ‘Destination – Increased Cybersecurity’ section of this work programme part

Expected Outcome: Projects’ results are expected to contribute to some or all of the following outcomes:

  • Breakthroughs in understanding the quantum hardness of various mathematical problem classes that underpin the security of current and future post-quantum cryptosystems;
  • New quantum algorithms with significant quantum speed-up for lattice-based, code-based, and potentially other mathematical problem-classes;
  • Improved implementation of quantum algorithms using high-level quantum programming languages to solve mathematical problems forming the core of cryptosystems;
  • Establishment of environments testing the robustness of cryptosystems regarding quantum attackers;
  • AI-based approaches to help discovering vulnerabilities of lattice-based or other mathematical problem-classes;
  • Cryptanalysis results;
  • Parameter suggestions to create a robust set of cryptographic building blocks for post-quantum cybersecurity and design of post-quantum cryptosystems with improved security against quantum or AI-based attacks.
