Lo and behold, #OpenSSL 3.5 (their upcoming LTS release) will come out here at the beginning of April, and it does indeed support some of these hybrid PQC schemes. Their recent beta2 announcement can be read here: openssl-library.org/post/2025- and their roadmap is at openssl-library.org/roadmap/in

Very excited by this work. Big kudos to the OpenSSL Team here! 🥳🎉 Already planning on giving this a spin with the C implementation of #Tor later this week to see how it goes!

UK urges critical orgs to adopt quantum cryptography by 2035

The UK's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has published specific timelines on migrating to post-quantum cryptography (PQC), dictating that critical organizations should complete migration by 2035.

The NCSC’s advisory deadline of 2035 for organisations to introduce quantum-safe algorithms is too late, according to some industry insiders.

🧵 …ja und nein und vor allem ist es Marketing durch Angstmacherei. Quantenkomputer sind noch nicht wirklich einsetzbar obwohl es viele als solches gerne vermarkten.

»The Quantum Apocalypse Is Coming. Be Very Afraid:
What happens when quantum computers can finally crack encryption and break into the world’s best-kept secrets? It’s called Q-Day—the worst holiday maybe ever.«

Since this is very much for us, I cannot deny it, but I see it as a marketing propaganda. To scare is also a marketing strategy.

Out of the top 100K domains, roughly 28K negotiate a quantum safe key exchange.

Almost all of those support both x25519_kyber768 and X25519MLKEM758; only 129 sites support SecP256r1MLKEM768. There are _no_ sites that support pure #PQC via e.g., mlkem768.

The overwhelming majority of sites that support PQC do so by way of Cloudflare. That percentage matches Cloudflare's overall coverage of the top 1M domains.

Pie chart showing share of top 1M domains by hosting provider: 31.6% Cloudflare, 13.1% Amazon AWS, 2.6% Google, 2.3% unknown, 2.2% Hetzner, 2.0% OVHcloud, 2.0% Akamai, 1.4% DigitalOcean

I have written a new white-paper for Far Phase, where I analysed the most popular Australian banking websites (18 in all) and found that **none** of them protected people from quantum threats. This is despite bank interactions being 99% via websites and apps, and banks holding some of the most sensitive, long-lived data. Yet, nearly 40% of global secure web traffic is protected from quantum threats, and even the Google search engine offers this protection. Australians would not expect that a search engine offers better post-quantum protection for their sensitive data than Australia's biggest banks. With technology enablers making this easier to implement in the next couple of months, Australian banks should urgently update their websites to protect their users.

UK cybersecurity agency National Cyber Security Centre is recommending that organisations start replacing existing asymmetric public key cryptosystems with post-quantum cryptography (PQC) alternatives to defend themselves against quantum computers

I was just ranting about #QKD in a chat with someone, when I compared quantum-resiliant cryptography with quantum key distribution like this, and noticed that I really like this summary:

If you want to go 500 meter down the street you can either take your bike or call a helicopter to your place, have it hover over your home, climb up a rope ladder, have it fly you those 500 meters and dis-rope.
Both of these get you to your destination, but one of them is faster, cheaper, less complicated, relying on more established infrastructure, scales better and is just about superior in every relevant regard. And it’s not the helicopter/QKD.
