Breaking the quadratic barrier: Quantum cryptanalysis of Milenage, telecommunications’ cryptographic backbone
Abstract
The potential advent of large-scale quantum computers in the near future poses a threat to contemporary cryptography.
One ubiquitous usage of cryptography is currently present in the vibrant field of cellular networks.
The cryptography of cellular networks is centered around seven secret-key algorithms
