FrodoKem1344Shake

FrodoKem1344Shake is a conservative post-quantum algorithm that prioritizes security through a well-understood mathematical foundation.

Security Level

FrodoKem1344Shake provides:

• NIST Level 5 security
• Conservative security margin
• Well-studied mathematical basis
• Maximum protection against quantum attacks

Implementation

// Initialize with secure key management
var secrets = new SecretsManager("<secrets_token>");
string masterPhrase = await secrets.Get("storage_master_phrase");

var storage = new StorageManager(
    "<token>", 
    masterPhrase,
    quantumAlgorithm: QuantumAlgorithmType.FrodoKem1344Shake
);

// Use in operations
await storage
    .EncryptWithQuantum()
    .Set("classified-data.dat", sensitiveData);

Performance Characteristics

• Key Generation: ~250μs
• Encapsulation: ~280μs
• Decapsulation: ~260μs
• Public Key Size: 21520 bytes
• Secret Key Size: 43088 bytes
• Ciphertext Size: 21632 bytes

Use Cases

Ideal for:

• Military-grade security requirements

Best Practices

1. Key Management

   • Use ByteHide Secrets for master phrase storage
   • Never hardcode the phrase in your code
   • Implement proper key rotation procedures
   • Keep secure backups of your master phrase

2. Implementation

   • Enable quantum protection for all operations
   • Comprehensive security audits
   • Regular compliance checks
   • Performance monitoring

3. Security Architecture

   • Document security requirements
   • Regular threat assessments
   • Incident response planning
   • Compliance validation
