Encrypted emails based on Signal protocol with post-quantum algorithms

Hi HN, we have recently completed a research project on how to encrypt emails with post-quantum secure algorithms as well as Forward Secrecy. We'd love to hear your feedback and discuss technical issues. The paper can be found here: https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/875

In plain words

This project presents a research implementation of encrypted email using the Signal protocol enhanced with post-quantum cryptographic algorithms and forward secrecy properties. It is designed for researchers and cryptography specialists interested in quantum-resistant email encryption. The work stands out by combining established Signal protocol principles with post-quantum security measures to protect against future quantum computing threats, documented in an academic paper for technical review and discussion.

    TutaCrypt, post-quantum encryption protocols for securing emails [pdf]2024 · tuta.com · ▲15

    Hi HN, we are the developers from Tuta (formerly Tutanota), the German end-to-end encrypted email provider, and we recently released the world's first post-quantum encryption for email. We have included a full technical write-up of the cryptography involved in these changes and we have released it for open public review. This document specifies TutaCrypt, a protocol designed for hybrid email encryption in Tuta Mail. The protocol combines a classical Elliptic-Curve-Diffie-Hellman key exchange with a post-quantum KEM. The goal is to replace the usage of RSA in Tuta Mail. In the remainder of…
