Research Abstract |
Quantum computers are potentially powerful enough to break any existing cryptographic schemes that are used to keep information and information systems safe and secure. Therefore we attempt to establish a theoretical background to construct a countermeasure against quantum computing. Our main idea is to strengthen the difficulty of a cryptographic primitive by combining it with other harder problem , so that the strengthened primit ive can be placed beyond the reach of quantum computer s . We call this technique" lifting" . In this research project, we have shown the lower bound of cryptographic primitives to be lifted, their complexity-theoretic properties, and the relationships among the problems used for lifting.
