This would be a job for the upstream developers of the software we have in Debian that supports SSH/HTTPS/PGP etc. I would encourage you to research the problems, current and future possible mitigations and communicate these to the relevant upstream developers. Once the mitigations are implemented then we can adopt them in Debian and communicate with our users about how to deploy these mitigations. > Also there should be written a user manual about new security threats > posed by quantum computers, and how to configure software to get around > these problems. If you are familiar with these new security threats, I would encourage you to document them and their Debian workarounds on the Debian wiki. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
