    Description:
    On August 13, the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) published the final form of its new post-quantum cryptographic standards. One key-exchange mechanism and two digital-signature schemes are now officially sanctioned by the institute. Adopting the new standards should be fairly painless for most developers, but the overhead added by the schemes could pose challenges for some applications.
