Post-quantum cryptography is no longer just a futuristic concept, but a necessity in the present day. Anyone who works in the field and ignores its principles and techniques could be left at a severe disadvantage. This course offers a comprehensive overview of post-quantum cryptography.

Day 1 explores quantum-based attacks, lattices, and their applications in schemes and key exchange. Day 2 delves into error-correcting codes, isogenies, and their security implications. Day 3 covers the MQ problem, various schemes, including oil and vinegar, rainbow, and their cryptanalysis.

Other candidates, such as hash-based signatures and MPC-in-the-head signatures, and side-channel attacks, are also discussed. Participants will gain a thorough understanding of post-quantum cryptography and its potential impact on modern cryptography.

Canada is a North American country. Known as the second-largest country of the world, Canada’s capital city is Ottawa. Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal are the biggest and most popular cities of this country. The 8,891-kilometer southern and western border between Canada and the United States is the world's longest intergovernmental land border. This country also has the longest coastline in the world.

Canada is a constitutional monarchy. The country was originally a British Empire colony and is now a part of the British Commonwealth. Both French and English are Canada’s official languages. Canada’s national animal is a beaver and the its flag design is a vertical triband of red and white with a red maple leaf charged in the centre. Some of the top-rated tourist attractions in Canada are Niagara Falls, Banff National Park and Rocky Mountains, CN Tower in Toronto City, Bay of Fundy, Old Quebec (Vieux-Quebec in French), the ski resort of Whistler, Ottawa's Parliament Hill and Vancouver Island.
