[24] JEP 496: Quantum-Resistant Module-Lattice-Based Key Encapsulation Mechanism

[mpalat]

ref: JEP 496

Summary
Enhance the security of Java applications by providing an implementation of the quantum-resistant Module-Lattice-Based Key-Encapsulation Mechanism (ML-KEM). Key encapsulation mechanisms (KEMs) are used to secure symmetric keys over insecure communication channels using public key cryptography. ML-KEM is designed to be secure against future quantum computing attacks. It has been standardized by the United States National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in FIPS 203.

"Quantum-Resistant Module-Lattice-Based Key Encapsulation Mechanism" ?? This sounds like something Sheldon Cooper would reel off 😆
