Overview Project Description
In CONFIDENTIAL6G, our goal is to ensure secure and private
computation in the cloud-edge continuum of 6G by developing
modern cryptographic techniques, tools, and libraries. We
recognize the importance of implementing privacy preservation
and security of data in heterogeneous environments and contexts,
and thus, we prioritize researching security enablers. We aim to
tackle the potential danger posed by near-future quantum
computers, which can break contemporary encryptions, by
exploring novel cryptographic operations.
