oqs-demos snapshot 2022-08 (0.7.2)

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.

open-quantum-safe/oqs-demos is a collection of integrations of liboqs into various high-level applications requiring the use of cryptography for their core operations. The goal of this integration is to provide easy prototyping of quantum-resistant cryptography in standard applications. The integrations should not be considered "production quality".

Running Chromium

Chromium as attached is a ready-to-run OQS-enabled binary build for x86_64 on Ubuntu 20 using liboqs at v0.7.2: Uncompress using tar xzvf chromium-ubuntu-0.7.2.tgz to a directory of your choice and start browsing with QSC by running ./chrome, e.g., accessing the OQS interop test server at https://test.openquantumsafe.org/: ./chrome https://test.openquantumsafe.org
