Quantum Safe Migration Center And Nccu Team Up To Protect Taiwan Data Security

Raylin Tso (左瑞麟), a professor of cryptography trained in Japan, recently discussed the evolution of cryptography in Taiwan and how cross-professional research collaboration can address cyber threats. Tso is currently teaching at National Chengchi University’s (NCCU) Department of Computer Science and heading the master’s program in Information Security. He also serves as a consultant for the Quantum Safe Migration Center, which was launched on August 1. Tso discussed the two main types of encryption used in cryptography, symmetric and asymmetric, and how post-quantum cryptography (PQC) has become more important as quantum computers have become more feasible. He believes that urgent action is needed to address the potential threats of quantum computers.
