At wolfSSL, our commitment to advancing post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is stronger than ever. With the rise of quantum computing threats, securing data from “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks is a critical focus for us. That’s why we are actively enhancing curl with robust PQC support to safeguard your communications well into the quantum era.
wolfSSL implements NIST-standardized post-quantum algorithms such as ML-KEM (Kyber) for key encapsulation and ML-DSA (Dilithium) for digital signatures, documented as FIPS 203 and FIPS 204. These algorithms are optimized for both high performance and strong security.
When built with wolfSSL, curl supports quantum-resistant key exchange with ML-KEM under TLS 1.3, protecting long-term confidentiality against future decryption threats from cryptographically relevant quantum computers. To facilitate a smooth transition, wolfSSL also enables hybrid cryptography, blending classical and post-quantum algorithms for enhanced security in curl-based applications.
