Post Quantum cURL
Recently, a lot of post-quantum activity has been happening here at WolfSSL. First, we’ve simplified and unified our naming conventions for the variants of the post-quantum algorithms. We now refer to each variant by the algorithm submitter’s claimed NIST level. For example, what used to be referred to as LIGHTSABER is now known as SABER_LEVEL1 […]

Adding security to a connection comes at a cost. It takes a little time to perform the crypto operations and some memory gets used during the operations. Not all TLS implementations are equal … how much memory and how much time is lost depends on what TLS library is being used. Recently OpenSSL came out […]

Recently, we announced our wolfSSL libOQS integration and we said we were planning to hybridize our KEMs with NIST-standardized ECDSA. The hybridization is completed. This is a brief summary of why this matters and what we did. It might come as a shock, but the sad truth is that we do not actually know that […]
