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".
