Abstract

Abstract Post-quantum (or quantum-resistant) cryptography refers to a set of cryptographic algorithms that are thought to remain secure even in the world of quantum computers. These algorithms are usually considered to be inefficient because of their big keys, or their running time. However, if quantum computers became a reality, security professionals will not have any other choice, but to use these algorithms. Lamport signature is a hash based one-time digital signature algorithm that is thought to be quantum-resistant. In this paper we will describe some simulation results related to the efficiency of the Lamport signature.
