Cerebion Rivet
We have been building a platform that analyzes quantum-vulnerable cryptography across four layers: Source code parses ASTs to find RSA, ECC, DH, and weak symmetric algorithms and generates fix suggestions pointing to NIST PQC replacements (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA) Binaries disassembles PE, ELF, and Mach-O files to detect crypto patterns without source access Network endpoints probes TLS/SSH to identify deprecated cipher suites and whether the endpoint supports hybrid post-quantum key exchange Certificates checks signature algorithms and key parameters against post-quantum readiness…

What it does
Quantum computers will break RSA, ECC, and Diffie-Hellman, while weakening symmetric cryptography and hashing algorithms like AES and SHA-2. Adversaries are already harvesting encrypted data today to decrypt once quantum computers become practical. Cerebion Rivet helps organizations identify quantum-vulnerable cryptography across source code, certificates, network infrastructure, and binaries from a single platform with recommended NIST PQC replacements. Supports fully offline analysis.
Cerebion Rivet — Post-Quantum Security Analysis Platform
Cerebion Rivet discovers, scores, and remediates quantum-vulnerable cryptography across your code, certificates, network, binaries, and key management infrastructure. Nearly every digital system, including financial transactions, communications, healthcare records, government and defense platforms, and critical infrastructure, depends on cryptography such as RSA, ECC, and Diffie-Hellman. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer could break all three using Shor's algorithm, and would also reduce the effective strength of symmetric encryption like AES-128 through Grover's algorithm. U.S. agencies including CISA, NIST, and NSA have warned organizations to begin preparing for post-quantum…from cerebion.com

Confidential computing for high-assurance RISC-V embedded systems2025 · github.com · ▲103Dear HN community! Looking forward to hearing your feedback on ACE (assured confidential execution), technology that implements VM-based trusted execution environment (TEE) for embedded RISC-V systems with focus on a formally verified and auditable firmware. We target high-assurance systems that can benefit from compartmentalization and hardware-backed isolation. The key ingredient called security monitor (firmware) is implemented in Rust. The formal specification is defined as annotations directly in code and gets translated to Coq using RefinedRust automation. ACE design is now part of the…

In the past few days, there have been uncertainties and concerns about the LUKS (“Linux Unified Key Setup”) disk encryption, which is widely used on Linux. We publish our assessment of this here.
CambiOS – a new Rust-based, sovereign identity, zero-trust OSJun 2026 · github.com · ▲8Hello HN, What is CambiOS? A microkernel OS built in Rust, that boots in QEMU under x86_64, AArch64, and RISC-V - targeting formal verification. Processes are assigned unforgeable cryptographic identity and IPC gates access to only allowed endpoints. What does it want to be? Ambitious. Cutting away latent security issues, corporate surveillance, centralized identity and data hosting, and OPEN. With the advent of the coding tools, building the things we want is a bit less of a lift. Could it replace Windows? Sure. That's where the idea was born. Secure and intuitive, in a nutshell. I've been…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Parallel agents, diff reviewer, and multi-model comparisons
Dev tools · May 2026 · kilo.ai
Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
