Workshop on Quantum-Resistant Cryptography (QuRCry)

- Eurocrypt affiliated event -

Madrid, Spain. May 4, 2025

As the field of quantum computing continues to advance, the cryptographic community faces an urgent need to address the vulnerabilities of existing cryptographic systems to potential quantum attacks by proposing and studying Quantum-Resistant Cryptography schemes. Ongoing standardization efforts by organizations such as NIST, initiatives by government entities worldwide promoting Quantum-Resistant Cryptography, and recent research calls in this area highlight the importance of advancing in the research of this new paradigm.

This interdisciplinary workshop focuses on the critical and timely topic of Quantum-Resistant Cryptography, aiming to bring together researchers, practitioners and policymakers to discuss advances, challenges and strategies in the design, theoretical analysis and practical implementation of cryptographic systems resilient to quantum adversaries. Thus, this workshop serves as a platform to exchange knowledge on Quantum Cryptography, Post-Quantum Cryptography and Pre-Quantum Cryptography resistant to quantum computing.
