A new path for Kyber on the web (Google Online Security Blog)

Actualités
Posted by David Adrian, David Benjamin, Bob Beck & Devon O'Brien, Chrome Team We previously posted about experimenting with a hybrid post-quantum key exchange, and enabling it for 100% of Chrome Desktop clients. The hybrid key exchange used both the pre-quantum X25519 algorithm, and the new post-quantum algorithm Kyber. At the time, the NIST standardization process for Kyber had not yet finished. Since then, the Kyber algorithm has been standardized with minor technical changes and renamed to the Module Lattice Key Encapsulation Mechanism (ML-KEM). We have implemented ML-KEM in Google’s cryptography library, BoringSSL, which allows for it to be deployed and utilized by services that depend on this library. The changes to the final version of ML-KEM make it incompatible with the previously deployed version of Kyber. As a result,…
