Title
|
Quantum-Safe Cryptography (QSC); Limits to Quantum Computing applied to symmetric key sizes
|
Scope and Field of Application
|
Informational document to explain the upper limits of quantum computing power in the context of cryptography. Analysis is based on very conservative assumptions, in particular, explanation on what the upper limit implies for applying Grover’s algorithm to finding a symmetric key.
