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. Details about liboqs can be found in README.md. See in particular limitations on intended use.
liboqs can be used with the following Open Quantum Safe application integrations:
- OpenSSL 1.0.2: A prototype integration of liboqs-based authentication and key exchange into TLS 1.2 in our fork of OpenSSL 1.0.2; see the OQS-OpenSSL-1_0_2-stable branch of our OpenSSL fork's repository.
- OpenSSL 1.1.1: A prototype integration of liboqs-based authentication and key exchange into TLS 1.3 in our fork of OpenSSL 1.1.1; see the OQS-OpenSSL-1_1_1-stable branch of our OpenSSL fork's repository.
- OpenSSH 7.9 portable 1: A prototype integration of liboqs-based authentication and key exchange into SSH in our fork of OpenSSH 7.9; see the OQS-master branch of our OpenSSH fork's repository.
liboqs can also be used in the following programming languages via language-specific wrappers:
- C++, via https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/liboqs-cpp
- Go, via https://github.com/thales-e-security/goliboqs
- .NET, via https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/liboqs-dotnet
- Python 3, via https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/liboqs-python
