Quantum computing will not break #DNSSEC tomorrow, but @icann's latest #OCTO paper makes it clear that post quantum cryptography ( #PQC ) is no longer just a distant topic for the #DNS community.

Which algorithm is cryptographically sufficiently strong, and which actually performs well in conjunction with DNS response sizes, signing processes, resolvers, and authoritative servers?

📰 Ransomware Evolves in 2026: Attackers Adopt Post-Quantum Crypto and Encryptionless Extortion

Ransomware in 2026 is evolving. 📈 A new Kaspersky report reveals attackers are using Post-Quantum Crypto, shifting to data leak extortion, and deploying 'EDR killers' to bypass defenses. #Ransomware #CyberSecurity #PQC #DataBreach

If your team is preparing for post-quantum migration, now is the right time to look beyond the algorithm and evaluate the implementation.

Post-Quantum key exchange in iroh? Thanks to the amazing #rustlang ecosystem and iroh depending on industry-stanard TLS used in a p2p-friendly way this is now possible: https://www.iroh.computer/blog/iroh-post-quantum-handshakes

Quantum-resistant algorithms are only as strong as their implementation.

Joining forces with @pqshield how CPA attacks apply to ML-KEM, and how to actually defend against them.

The will be a bigger update on the client simulation soon

- Apple's OS 26.x finally support one #KEM (X25519MLKEM768)
- #OpenSSL >=4.0.0 comes with new curves, some #SM2 related. And with a whopping 27 signature algorithms

Wrote a deep-dive on ML-KEM (FIPS 203): the post-quantum key exchange already shipping in Chrome, AWS, Cloudflare and the Linux kernel.

Fully interactive rundown, covers everything from polynomial rings and Module-LWE to encapsulation, decapsulation, and why the Fujisaki-Okamoto transform turns a toy into a real primitive.

No hand-waving. Actual math, actual intuition.
