Fundamental Limitations of Post-Quantum Cryptographic Architectures

Modern lattice-based cryptography, particularly the learning with errors paradigm, relies on injecting artificial noise to secure data against quantum adversaries. This study systematically examines the theoretical and physical boundaries of this noise-reliant model across four interconnected...

Explainable PQC: A Layered Interpretive Framework for Post-Quantum Cryptographic Security Assumptions

This paper studies how post-quantum cryptographic PQC security assumptions can be represented and communicated through a structured, layered framework that is useful for technical interpretation but does not replace formal cryptographic proofs. We propose "Explainable PQC,'' an interdisciplinary...

Improving ML Attacks on LWE with Data Repetition and Stepwise Regression

The Learning with Errors LWE problem is a hard math problem in lattice-based cryptography. In the simplest case of binary secrets, it is the subset sum problem, with error. Effective ML attacks on LWE were demonstrated in the case of binary, ternary, and small secrets, succeeding on fairly sparse...

Quantum-Resistant Cryptographic Models for Next-Gen Cybersecurity

Another threat is the development of large quantum computers, which have a high likelihood of breaking the high popular security protocols because it can use both Shor and Grover algorithms. In order to fix this looming threat, quantum-resistant cryptographic systems, otherwise known as...
