The transition to Post-Quantum Cryptography in the #Tor network's #TLS layer is making progress! 😎 We are now at 44.57% of Tor relays supporting the X25519MLKEM768 hybrid handshake. This number is up from 34.65% in March earlier this year. I've uploaded a list of relays and their scan results from yesterday on and wrote an email to the tor-relays@ mailing-list summarising the results in I hope we can get these numbers up in the near future. This upgrade requires more from the relay operators than our usual upgrades, as it depends upon an operating system-level upgrade of the underlying crypto libraries. Now that #LibreSSL also supports the hybrid handshake, we also need to roll a C Tor release that enables the PQC group when Tor's compiled against LibreSSL. I will take a look at that next week! This should enable PQC for our #OpenBSD based Tor relays. Thanks to all the relay operators for keeping their relays up to date! 🥳 #cryptography #postquantumcryptography #pqc

Hello Nostr! First time here. Created the account while enjoying the event here at #aosconvergence We brought some Tor stickers and dropped them at the sticker table near the entrance. If you want to talk about Tor, anonymity, anti-censorship, web traffic fingerprinting, Arti app integration, etc. both @Micah and I will be around to tomorrow! image
