      "summary_nl": "Een algebraısche aanval is een cryptanalytische techniek waarbij cryptografische schema’s worden gemodelleerd als systemen van niet-lineaire vergelijkingen. Zulke systemen die voortkomen uit cryptografische schema’s, en in het algemeen van praktische toepassingen zijn bijna altijd gestructureerd, maar de huidige algoritmen houden doorgaans geen rekening met deze structuur. In dit project zullen we een algoritmisch raamwerk ontwikkelen dat rekening houdt met de specifieke structuur die voortkomt uit het cryptosysteem en uit de interactie van de fysieke implementatie van het cryptosysteem met vijandige omgeving. Het raamwerk zal worden toegepast op post-kwantumschema’s om het vertrouwen in de veiligheidsanalyse van deze schema’s te vergroten.",
      "summary_en": "An algebraic attack is a cryptanalytic technique in which cryptographic schemes are modeled as systems of non-linear equations. Systems arising from cryptographic schemes, and in general from practical applications are almost always structured, but current algorithms typically do not take into account this structure. In this project, we will develop an algorithmic framework that takes into account the specific structure arising from the cryptosystem itself and from the interaction of the physical implementation of the cryptosystem with adversarial environment. The framework will be applied on post-quantum schemes in order to increase the confidence in the security analysis of these schemes.",
