Fourth PQC Standardization Conference (virtual) – Day 1 Part 1
<p>NIST hosted the Fourth PQC Standardization Conference (virtual) on November 29-December 1, 2022 to discuss various aspects of the candidate algorithms and obtain valuable feedback for informing decisions on standardization. Submission teams for both the selected algorithms, as well as the algorithms advancing to the fourth round, were invited to give an update on their algorithms.</p><p>Session I – Welcome and Algorithm Updates</p><p>Session Chair: Dustin Moody </p><p>10:00 – 10:10 Opening/NIST Welcome -- Matt Scholl, NIST, Computer Security Division Chief </p><p>10:10 – 10:30 NIST PQC: Looking into the Future -- Dustin Moody, NIST </p><p>10:30 – 10:45 CRYSTALS-Kyber -- Peter Schwabe, MPI-SP & Radboud University </p><p>10:45 – 11:00 CRYSTALS-Dilithium -- Vadim Lyubashevsky, IBM Research Europe, Zurich </p><p>11:00 – 11:15 FALCON -- Thomas Prest, PQShield SAS </p><p>11:15 – 11:30 SPHINCS+ -- Andreas Hülsing, TU Eindhoven </p><p>11:30 – 11:50 SPHINCS+C: Compressing SPHINCS+ With (Almost) No Cost -- Eyal Ronen, Tel Aviv University </p><p>11:50 – 12:10 Twelve-round Keccak for secure hashing -- Gilles Van Assche, STMicroelectronics </p><p>12:10 – 12:15 1st Annual RWPQC 2023 announcement -- Daniel Apon, MITRE</p>
