"Post-Quantum Cryptography Standards Officially Announced by NIST – a History and Explanation"

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has formally published three post-quantum cryptography standards from its competition to develop cryptography that can withstand quantum computing decryption of current asymmetric encryption. The three standards are ML-KEM (Kyber), ML-DSA (Dilithium), and SLH-DSA (Sphincs+). FN-DSA (Falcon) is a fourth that has been chosen for standardization in the future. This article continues to discuss the post-quantum cryptography standards officially announced by NIST and the insights of Michael Osborne, CTO of IBM Quantum Safe, on the need for and principles of quantum safe cryptography.
