IEEE P1363 is an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standardization project for public-key cryptography. It includes specifications for:

• Traditional public-key cryptography (IEEE Std 1363-2000 and 1363a-2004)
• Lattice-based public-key cryptography (IEEE Std 1363.1-2008)
• Password-based public-key cryptography (IEEE Std 1363.2-2008)
• Identity-based public-key cryptography using pairings (IEEE Std 1363.3-2013)

The chair of the working group as of October 2008 is William Whyte of NTRU Cryptosystems, Inc., who has served since August 2001. Former chairs were Ari Singer, also of NTRU (1999–2001), and Burt Kaliski of RSA Security (1994–1999).

The IEEE Standard Association withdrew all of the 1363 standards except 1363.3-2013 on 7 November 2019.^[1]
