Onwards and upwards!
Dr. K. Sowjanya contributed three TDocs at the recent 3GPP e-meeting in Washington, DC.

Her contributions focused on SUPI privacy, digital identity authentication, and security aspects of user-sensitive information exposure.

Congratulations to her!

What is the overhead of post-quantum protocols?
Is it fair to measure extra header-latency alone? Is this overhead amortized just enough over large data transfers?

Amazon Researchers have done their measurements!
