NTRU 1.0

NTRU was specially designed as a public key cryptosystem that is thought to be unbreakable even with quantum computers. Commonly used cryptosystems like RSA or ECC, on the other hand, will be broken if and when quantum computers become available. In addition, NTRU is significantly faster than other public-key cryptosystems. NTRU consists of two algorithms: · NTRUEncrypt for public-key encryption and · NTRUSign for digital signatures. Both algorithms use lattice-based cryptography. For an in-depth description and cryptographic analysis please refer to the “Resources” section to the right.
