Proposals of comparative analysis and decision making during the competition regarding the certain benefits of asymmetric post quantum cryptographic primitives

Abstract

Considers proposals on the implementation of cryptographic primitives comparative analysis and substantiation, development and experimental confirmation of methodical bases application possibilities of system unconditional and conditional criteria selection and application, and methods and technique of comparative analysis and making the decision on asymmetric post quantum cryptographic primitives type directional encryption, and keys encapsulation and electronic signatures mechanisms. Some criteria and indicators that can be used for comparative analysis of properties of the candidates for the post quantum cryptographic primitives are presented. Comparative analysis of the existing mechanisms of perspective electronic signatures in accordance with ISO/IEC 14888-3:2016 standard and some cryptographic primitives that are considered possible to use in the post quantum period is carried out. The results of the cryptographic primitives conducted estimation are presented. Conclusions and recommendations on the use of certain cryptographic primitives estimation methods are made.
