Technical drafts
- I have been the principal submitter of qTESLA, a quantum-secure digital signature scheme that had been submitted to NIST’s post-quantum standardization effort. It has been accepted as a candidate of the second round as one of nine out of 20 schemes, but did not advance to the third round.
