Apple Announces Post-Quantum Encryption Algorithms for iMessage

Apple announced PQ3, its post-quantum encryption standard based on the Kyber secure key-encapsulation protocol, one of the post-quantum algorithms selected by NIST in 2022. Theres a lot of detail in the Apple blog post, and more in Douglas Stabilas security analysis. I am of two minds about this...

Apple Unveils PQ3 Protocol - Post-Quantum Encryption for iMessage

Apple has announced a new post-quantum cryptographic protocol called PQ3 that it said will be integrated into iMessage to secure the messaging platform against future attacks arising from the threat of a practical quantum computer. "With compromise-resilient encryption and extensive defenses...

Apple iOS 17.4: iMessage Gets Post-Quantum Encryption in New Update

Useful quantum computers aren’t a reality—yet. But in one of the biggest deployments of post-quantum encryption so far, Apple is bringing the technology to iMessage...

Improving the Cryptanalysis of Lattice-Based Public-Key Algorithms

The winner of the Best Paper Award at Crypto this year was a significant improvement to lattice-based cryptanalysis. This is important, because a bunch of NISTs post-quantum options base their security on lattice problems. I worry about standardizing on post-quantum algorithms too quickly. We are...

Post-quantum Cryptography for the Go Ecosystem

filippo.io/mlkem768 is a pure-Go implementation of ML-KEM-768 optimized for correctness and readability. ML-KEM formerly known as Kyber, renamed because we can't have nice things is a post-quantum key exchange mechanism in the process of being standardized by NIST and adopted by most of the...

Quantum Computing Skeptics

Interesting article. I am also skeptical that we are going to see useful quantum computers anytime soon. Since at least 2019, I have been saying that this is hard. And that we dont know if its "land a person on the surface of the moon" hard, or "land a person on the surface of the sun" hard. They...

Improving Shor’s Algorithm

We dont have a useful quantum computer yet, but we do have quantum algorithms. Shors algorithm has the potential to factor large numbers faster than otherwise possible, which--if the run times are actually feasible--could break both the RSA and Diffie-Hellman public-key algorithms. Now, computer...
