  • Purism announces the Librem PQC Encryptor, a device for post-quantum cryptography (PQC) encryption according to NIST FIPS 203 standard.
  • Traditional encryption methods like RSA and ECC are vulnerable to quantum attacks, making data stored today potentially decryptable in the future.
  • The Librem PQC Encryptor ensures data-in-transit (DIT) is quantum-resistant, protecting against 'harvest now, decrypt later' threats.
  • Purism has been educating network operators and government agencies about PQC for over a year.
  • The Librem PQC Encryptor uses ML-KEM key exchange and AES-256 encryption to protect data streams.
  • PQC implementation has been independently verified by DOE Sandia Labs Cryptography Team.
  • Purism's PQC approach ensures secret keys never leave the encryptor, enhancing security.
  • Purism offers three models of the Librem PQC Encryptor, with availability details provided.
  • Purism advocates for personal privacy, cybersecurity, and individual freedoms across its products and services.
