Post-Quantum Encryption
Post-Quantum Encryption Post-quantum encryption is a form of encryption designed to protect information against the future capabilities of quantum computers. Unlike current encryption methods, which could be vulnerable to quantum algorithms, post-quantum encryption relies on complex mathematical structures believed to be resistant to the types of attacks quantum computers might perform. The aim is to […]
Post-Quantum Cryptography
Post-Quantum Cryptography Post-quantum cryptography refers to cryptographic methods specifically designed to withstand potential threats posed by quantum computers. Quantum computers, with their unique processing power, could break many of the encryption systems currently in use by solving complex mathematical problems—like factoring large numbers—much faster than classical computers. Post-quantum cryptography aims to develop and implement encryption […]
Principle of Least Privilege (PoLP)
Principle of Least Privilege (PoLP) The Principle of Least Privilege (PoLP) is a fundamental concept of zero trust security framework that restricts users, systems, and processes to the minimum access necessary to perform their tasks. By limiting access rights to only essential functions, PoLP reduces the risk of misuse, whether accidental or intentional. For instance, if […]
