• Abstract: In recent years, with the advancement of quantum computing, mainstream asymmetric cryptographic methods in the current Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) systems are gradually being threatened. Therefore, this study explores X.509 security certificates based on Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and discusses implemented solutions. This study compares mainstream asymmetric cryptographic methods (including RSA and Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA)) with standard PQC methods (including Falcon, Dilithium, SPHINCS+), comparing the efficiency of certificate generation, signature generation, and signature verification. Finally, recommendations for a solution based on PQC for X.509 security certificates are proposed.

  We present a novel cryptographic system that integrates Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) with classical encryption techniques. Our approach leverages the E91 QKD protocol to generate a shared secret key between communicating parties. This key is then hashed using the Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) to provide a fixedlength, high-entropy key.
