Secure Architectures of Future Emerging Cryptography (SAFEcrypto) will provide a new generation of practical, robust and physically secure post-quantum cryptographic solutions that ensure long-term security for future ICT systems, services and applications. Novel public-key cryptographic schemes (digital signatures, authentication, identity-based encryption (IBE), attribute-based encryption (ABE)) will be developed using Lattice problems as the source of computational hardness… More Info
Queen’s University leading the way in pioneering, European cyber-security initiative
Queen’s University Belfast will be at the forefront of a major, new European push to combat increasingly sophisticated cyber-attacks. The Queen’s-led SAFEcrypto project will draw together cryptographers and other IT experts from Germany, France, Switzerland, Britain and Ireland to devise urgent security solutions capable of withstanding attack from the next generation of hackers. The project will focus […]

SAFEcrypto and ETSI
In March 2015, the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) created a new Industry Specification Group focussed on Quantum Safe Cryptography (QSC). The first meeting was held at ETSI Headquarters in Sophia Antipolis from 23rd to 26th March 2015, and was attended by Philip Mills (Queen’s University Belfast). The attendees drafted an initial Work Programme with […]
