Advanced Cryptographic Hardware Acceleration

With the rapid advancement of quantum computing technology, traditional cryptographic algorithms face the risk of being quickly compromised. Post-quantum cryptography, which can effectively resist quantum computing attacks, has become a research hotspot in the field of cryptography. Post-quantum cryptographic algorithms encompass various types based on different security problems, each involving multiple kinds of operators. In response to key challenges such as high computational complexity in the hardware deployment of post-quantum cryptography, this report first systematically introduces the hardware architecture implementation methods for core operators of post-quantum cryptography. Second, it elaborates on circuit-level design techniques for post-quantum cryptography. Finally, it provides an in-depth discussion on overall hardware architecture implementation schemes for post-quantum cryptography. Through the above content, this report aims to offer systematic reference and technical support for the design of hardware accelerators for post-quantum cryptography.
