“…Several proposals which suggested to replace binary Goppa codes with alternative families did not meet a similar fate. They all focus on a specific class of codes equipped with a decoding algorithm: generalized Reed-Solomon codes (GRS for short) [Nie86] or large subcodes of them [BL05], Reed-Muller codes [Sid94], algebraic geometry codes [JM96], LDPC and MDPC codes [BBC08,MTSB13] or convolutional codes [LJ12,GSJB14]. Most of them were successfully cryptanalyzed [SS92, Wie10, MS07, FM08, OTD10, CGG + 14, LT13,CMCP14b,COTG15].…”
