Just in time for 10 years of Tuta/Tutanota, we are launching the most significant security upgrade of Tuta Mail with TutaCrypt. This groundbreaking post-quantum encryption protocol will secure emails with a hybrid protocol combining state-of-the-art quantum-safe algorithms with traditional algorithms (AES/ECC) making Tuta Mail the world's first email provider that can protect emails from quantum computer attacks.

Which part? lol. A lot of companies are rolling out PQ these days it seems

The point is, we wish to see the proof

That’s fair. Has anyone been able to substantiate their claims for quantum resistant encryption?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Presumably only mathematically

That is specifically the sort of proof I would be interested in

You might find this interesting. As I understand it, quantum computers aren't a threat to encryption yet, but cryptographers are already searching for solutions to potential impending issues.
