= Falcon (signature scheme)
{wiki=Falcon_(signature_scheme)}

Falcon is a digital signature scheme that is part of the post-quantum cryptography initiative. Developed by researchers at the University of Kent, it is designed to be secure against potential future threats from quantum computers, which could undermine many traditional public-key cryptography algorithms. Falcon is based on the mathematical structure of lattice problems, which are believed to be hard to solve even by quantum computers.
