Examining the Security Role of Quantum-Resistant Smart Contracts in Protecting Sensitive Data in Blockchain Applications
Author(s): Adewale D. Ashogbon* and Olumoye Mosud
This study examines the security of quantum-resistant smart contracts for protecting data on blockchain networks, as quantum computing poses an increasing threat to traditional cryptography. As blockchain becomes a mainstay of critical digital networks, ensuring its security mechanisms are durable and dependable is crucial. The research aims to evaluate the effectiveness, efficiency, and practical feasibility of integrating post-quantum cryptographic algorithms, specifically CRYSTALS-Dilithium, into innovative contract frameworks to enhance quantum resilience. A hybrid research design was employed, incorporating theoretical analysis, simulation-based experimentation, and performance evaluation. Data was obtained from scientific studies, specialized blockchain platforms, and sources for cryptographic measurements. Every stage of the development and testing of smart contracts was conduc..
