Combining Post-Quantum Cryptography and Quantum Key Distribution: Taxonomy, Constructions, Proofs, Standards, Deployments and Open Problems

Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and quantum key distribution (QKD) address the quantum threat from opposite directions: PQC replaces vulnerable public-key algorithms with schemes believed to resist quantum cryptanalysis, while QKD derives keys whose secrecy rests on physical assumptions rather than computational ones....
