OpenSSL Conference

OpenSSL Conference

The Open Quantum Safe Project, and Other Post-Quantum Research Projects
2025-10-08 , Krakow/ Business Value & Enterprise Adoption

In this presentation, I'll talk about the Open Quantum Safe project, an open-source project that aims to support the transition to quantum-resistant cryptography. I'll talk about current work in OQS and how it complements OpenSSL, and also talk about other projects in the Linux Foundation's Post-Quantum Cryptography Alliance. Time permitting, I'll also present some recent research results in post-quantum cryptography protocol transition.

Dr. Douglas Stebila is an Associate Professor of cryptography in the Department of Combinatorics & Optimization at the University of Waterloo in Canada. His research focuses on improving the security of Internet communications protocols and developing practical quantum-resistant cryptography. He is the co-founder of the Open Quantum Safe project, an open-source software project for prototyping and evaluating quantum-resistant cryptography.
