Postquantum Algorithms in Fedora - Current Status and Future Plans

Explore the challenges and future plans for implementing postquantum cryptographic algorithms in Fedora during this 17-minute conference talk from DevConf.CZ 2023. Gain insights into the Red Hat Crypto team's roadmap for introducing postquantum algorithms in Fedora as a preparatory step for transitioning to Red Hat. Learn about the current state of implementation, the team's choices, and upcoming moves to ensure these algorithms become usable in Fedora for experimental purposes. Understand the urgency of the postquantum transition and its impact on the broader community and Red Hat in the near future. Discover why support for these algorithms cannot yet be added to RHEL due to the lack of finalized standards, and how Fedora serves as a testing ground for implementing current standardization levels.
