Re: [tor-talk] Post Quantum Tor

This is worth looking at and I'd fully support such a project.

Hi,

I was just wondering since the NSA has quantum computers that can break
ECDSA (As they have stated they could break bitcoin in an interview, and
telecomix unlocked Cameron's hard drive.) When is Tor going to be upgraded
to post quantum?

Can we at least hack together an interleaving of RSA and ECDSA with some
secure number of rounds in the interim?

Re: [tor-talk] Post Quantum Tor

2018-05-26 Thread flipchan
I think someone wanted to implement supersingular isogeny(misspelled i guess ?) 
diffie hellman but then someone pointed out that it had some flads, i guess 
what we could do is update to curve 448 , i think dont think  they can break 
all kinds of ec doe , and ofc Curve25519 got a big target on its head. I would 
wait for the crypto ppl to wake up and answer this.
