SandboxAQ, a leading technology company, has achieved significant milestones in cybersecurity research and development. The company’s dedicated team has made substantial contributions to the field, particularly in post-quantum cryptography (PQC).
In 2024 alone, SandboxAQ has published 18 peer-reviewed papers, bringing the total number of cybersecurity publications since its spin-off from Alphabet in 2022 to 45. Sixteen of these papers were presented at prestigious conferences.
One of the most notable achievements is the publication of FIPS 205 by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The consortium behind this standard, SPHINCS+, was led by SandboxAQ’s Andreas Hülsing from the PQC research and development team. Additionally, SandboxAQ’s SDitH algorithm was selected by NIST for the second round of the PQC Standardization for Additional Signature Algorithms.
The company’s research has also been recognized with accolades. One of its papers received the best paper award at Asiacrypt, a major cryptography conference.
“SandboxAQ’s work in advancing the scientific literature around Post-Quantum Cryptography, combined with their global efforts in the related standards, are essential in helping the community prepare for the quantum threat,” said Mike Brown, CEO of Polar Analysis.
SandboxAQ’s research has been instrumental in pushing the boundaries of cryptography. The company’s researchers have published papers on various topics, including:
Attacks on post-quantum signature candidates: Identifying vulnerabilities in potential standards.
Oblivious Pseudo Random Functions: Developing practical solutions for advanced cryptographic techniques.
Polynomial commitments: A crucial component of zero-knowledge proofs.
Formally-verified implementations of PQC standards: Ensuring the security and correctness of cryptographic im ..
