Post-quantum cryptography to enhance security in Hyperledger Blockchain
The primary objective of this project is to investigate the implementation of post-quantum cryptography and analyse its integration with Hyperledger Fabric blockchain, with the aim of maintaining the transparency and integrity of transactions against attacks using quantum algorithms, and to enable its subsequent extrapolation to other blockchain distributions.

Challenges
It is still not safe to implement cryptography based on a single post-quantum algorithm, as it has not been proven that these are at least as secure as the standards we currently use.
Solution
To implement quantum-resistant algorithms using hybrid cryptography. Hybrid cryptography consists of combining multiple cryptographic mechanisms, providing the security of the strongest among them.
