Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue presents the latest developments of public-key post-quantum cryptography, including secret-key cryptography, multivariate quadratic equations cryptography, code-based cryptography, lattice-based cryptography, hashed-based cryptography, and other exciting developments in applied cryptography, and their applications in blockchain technology. The construction of cryptographic primitives and architectural hardware implementations are the main focus on this Special Issue. We also welcome submissions in the area of side-channel attacks and the relevant countermeasures. Each submission will be professionally reviewed by domain-area experts in the field.
Dr. Ray C.C. Cheung
