Cross-Chain Vulnerabilities in the Quantum Era: A Threat Analysis to Blockchain Interoperability

 

Cross-Chain Vulnerabilities in the Quantum Era: A Threat Analysis to Blockchain Interoperability by Anupam Tiwari

1.    I presented my research paper titled "Cross-Chain Vulnerabilities in the Quantum Era: A Threat Analysis to Blockchain Interoperability" at the International Conference on the Network and Cryptology (NetCrypt) 2025. The paper explores the emerging security threats posed by quantum computing to blockchain interoperability protocols, with a focus on cross-chain communication mechanisms. It provides a comprehensive threat analysis highlighting how post-quantum vulnerabilities can compromise inter-network trust, data integrity, and consensus mechanisms across heterogeneous blockchain systems.

2.    The presentation was part of NetCrypt’s broader agenda on advancing research in cryptology, network security, and cyber resilience, particularly in the context of evolving technologies such as quantum computing and machine learning. The conference brought together global experts and practitioners, providing a dynamic forum for interdisciplinary knowledge exchange and future collaboration in securing next-generation communication infrastructures.
