KEMTLS: securing TLS connections from quantum adversaries

Abstract

The Transport Layer Security protocol (TLS) is a protocol that secures most of the Internet connections, but it is also one that will be broken when quantum adversaries arrive. Sofía and Thom will talk about a new proposed mechanism, KEMTLS, for making the TLS protocol safe for quantum computers.
