OQS-OpenSSL_1_0_2-stable snapshot 2018-11
About
The Open Quantum Safe (OQS) project has the goal of developing and prototyping quantum-resistant cryptography. More information on OQS can be found on our website: https://openquantumsafe.org/ and on Github at https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/.
liboqs is an open source C library for quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms.
open-quantum-safe/openssl is an integration of liboqs into (a fork of) OpenSSL. The goal of this integration is to provide easy prototyping of quantum-resistant cryptography. The integration should not be considered "production quality".
This branch of our fork of OpenSSL aims to provide integration of post-quantum algorithms from liboqs into TLS 1.2 in OpenSSL 1.0.2.
This branch of our fork of OpenSSL can be used with the following versions of liboqs:
- liboqs master branch 0.1.0
- liboqs nist-branch 2018-11 snapshot
Release notes
This snapshot of the OQS fork of OpenSSL 1.0.2 (OQS-OpenSSL_1_0_2-stable
) was released on November 13, 2018. Its release page on Github is https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/openssl/releases/tag/OQS-OpenSSL_1_0_2-stable-snapshot-2018-11.
What's New
This is the third snapshot release of OQS-OpenSSL_1_0_2-stable.
It syncs the fork with the upstream OpenSSL 1.0.2p release.
There are no algorithmic changes since the last release. However, since the last snapshot release, OQS-OpenSSL_1_0_2-stable now builds against the liboqs master branch, and Windows builds have been fixed.
Future work
Snapshot releases of OQS-OpenSSL_1_0_2-stable will be made approximately bi-monthly. These will include syncing the branch with upstream releases of OpenSSL, and changes required to sync with new releases of liboqs.
