OQS-OpenSSH snapshot 2021-08

About

The Open Quantum Safe (OQS) project has the goal of developing and prototyping quantum-resistant cryptography. More information on OQS can be found on our website: https://openquantumsafe.org/ and on Github at https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/.

liboqs is an open source C library for quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms.

OQS-OpenSSH is an integration of liboqs into (a fork of) OpenSSH. The goal of this integration is to provide easy prototyping of quantum-resistant cryptography. The integration should not be considered "production quality".

Release notes

This is the 2021-08 snapshot release of OQS-OpenSSH, released on August 11, 2021. This release is intended to be used with liboqs version 0.7.0.

What's New
