👉 Resistant computing, also known as post-quantum cryptography, refers to cryptographic algorithms designed to be secure against attacks by quantum computers. Traditional encryption methods, like RSA and ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography), rely on the computational difficulty of problems such as factoring large integers and solving discrete logarithms, which quantum computers can solve efficiently using Shor's algorithm. Resistant computing focuses on developing new cryptographic techniques based on mathematical problems that are believed to be hard even for quantum computers, such as lattice-based cryptography, hash-based signatures, code-based cryptography, and multivariate polynomial cryptography. These algorithms aim to ensure data security and privacy in the era of quantum computing, where classical cryptographic methods may become obsolete.
