SUMMARY:From Fear to Hybrid: Making PQC Less Scary
DESCRIPTION:European agencies such as ANSSI and BSI recommend the hybrid us
 e of post-quantum cryptographic algorithms alongside traditional schemes\, 
 driven by concerns regarding the maturity and long-term security assurance 
 of purely post-quantum solutions. This talk focuses on two prominent approa
 ches to fulfilling this requirement through compound algorithms: the IETF's
  composite signatures and KEMs\, as well as Intelligent Composed Algorithms
 .\n\nThe original motivations behind each approach and their respective des
 ign decisions will be presented in detail\, including the cryptographic con
 struction and the security properties they aim to achieve. The advantages a
 nd drawbacks of both approaches will be examined\, highlighting how they ca
 n contribute to crypto agility and how they differ from other hybridization
  concepts such as hybrid certificates or multiple signatures. The talk also
  addresses current interoperability considerations and implementation chall
 enges. Finally\, the state of standardization within the IETF and other rel
 evant bodies will be reviewed\, alongside existing support and an outlook o
 n future work in the field of hybrid algorithms.\n\n\nSpeakers: Jan Klaußn
