Secure Architecture Design for Post-Quantum Cryptography Algorithms

Number theory-based public-key cryptosystems such as RSA, which we describe as secure today, will be breakable using Shor's algorithm once quantum computers (QC) become operational. This means that internet traffic, about 95% of which is encrypted, becomes completely insecure and all our personal information is at risk, as it will make digital signing and key sharing processes in existing protocols (HTTPS etc.) insecure. Therefore, many studies are being carried out today on algorithms called post-quantum cryptography (PQC) that cannot be broken by fully functional QCs to be developed in the future.
Within the scope of this project, a secure architecture will be developed that will run lattice-based PQC algorithms with high efficiency and speed.
-In the architecture, PQC algorithms will be integrated as an instruction set extension. Thus, lattice-based operations will run with high performance and security.
-The architecture will be designed to be safe from side-channel attacks such as cache, power analysis, and timing attacks.
