This document, produced by the Quantum Internet Research Group (QIRG), introduces quantum networks and presents general guidelines for the design and construction of such networks. Overall, …

Recent advances in cryptanalysis [BH2013] and progress in the development of quantum computers [NAS2019] pose a threat to widely deployed digital signature algorithms.

Many others will fail in interesting ways; we coin the term "Quantum Bug" for such failures. In the following section, we will discuss some examples of Quantum Bugs.

"Quantum hacking: Experimental demonstration of time-shift attack against practical quantum-key-distribution systems", Physical Review A, American Physical Society, DOI …

The vision of a quantum internet is to enhance existing Internet technology by enabling quantum communication between any two points on Earth. To achieve this goal, a quantum network stack …

This specification defines two quantum-resistant ways to establish a symmetric key-encryption key, which is used to encrypt the sender-generated content-encryption key. In both cases, the PSK is …

In recent years, cryptographers have been specifying Key Encapsulation Mechanism (KEM) algorithms, including quantum-secure KEM algorithms. This document defines conventions for the use of KEM …

Symmetric algorithms used in EAP-AKA' FS, such as HMAC-SHA-256 and the algorithms used to generate AT_AUTN and AT_RES, are practically secure against even large, robust quantum …

If large-scale quantum computers are ever built, these computers will have more than a trivial number of quantum bits (qubits), and they will be able to break many of the public-key cryptosystems currently …

Most symmetric cryptographic algorithms that are secure in the classical model provide quantum security in the Q1 model, i.e., they are post-quantum secure. Security in the Q1 setting corresponds …
