Google Chrome 引入 CECPQ1,開始測試 Post-Quantum Cryptography

Quantum Computer 對現有密碼學的衝擊很大,像是 RSA 演算法是基於「質因數分解」的難題而架構出來的系統,在 Quantum Computer 上存在有效率的演算法,也就是 Shor's algorithm

雖然 Quantum Computer 在技術上還沒辦法對現有演算法造成有效的攻擊,但已經有人提出新的演算法來對抗,而 Google 打算在 Google Chrome 裡面引入測試:「Experimenting with Post-Quantum Cryptography」。

Google 也特別說明了,他們不希望這個實驗最後變成 de-facto standard (借測轉出貨的概念),而是希望當作一個開頭,希望之後可以用更好的標準換掉:

We explicitly do not wish to make our selected post-quantum algorithm a de-facto standard. To this end we plan to discontinue this experiment within two years, hopefully by replacing it with something better.
