This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 15371 "Quantum Cryptanalysis". In this seminar, participants explored the impact that quantum algorithms will have on cryptology once a large-scale quantum computer becomes available. Research highlights in this seminar included both computational resource requirement and availability estimates for meaningful quantum cryptanalytic attacks against conventional cryptography, as well as the security of proposed quantum-safe cryptosystems against emerging quantum cryptanalytic attacks.
