- tux3 3y agoThere were a lot of pqcrypto candidates, and several of them were indeed thoroughly broken, prey to the fearsome cryptanalyst's laptop left running over a weekend NIST standardized Kyber and Dilithium, and for now at least, they seem to be holding up. I'd still want to do hybrid (ECC+PQ) asymmetric crypto for the time being, but we're (slowly) starting to gain a modicum of confidence in the new standards, enough for deployment
