Abstract

The seminar will give a high-level introduction to the area of quantum computing and explain its relevance for cryptography. On one hand, quantum computers can compromise the security of existing cryptosystems. On the other hand, the seminar will discuss how quantum effects can be leveraged to build protocols with security guarantees that are beyond the reach of conventional technologies.
