Extremely powerful computers of the future require alternative encryption and signature methods. In a six-year process, the US authority NIST has now elevated four post-quantum algorithms to standard status – one of these algorithms, the signature algorithm SPHINCS+, was developed by the SPHINCS+-team including Christian Rechberger of IAIK.
