Cloudflare GA Post-Quantum IPsec: Hybrid ML-KEM Standard Defeats QKD, Proprietary Suites
Cloudflare announces GA of post-quantum encryption for its IPsec product, implementing hybrid **ML-KEM (FIPS 203)** per **draft-ietf-ipsecme-ikev2-mlkem**. It achieves interoperability with **Cisco IOS XE** and **Fortinet FortiOS 7.6.6+** without special hardware. This extends post-quantum security to site-to-site WAN and explicitly rejects the **QKD** approach.
