The Java Platform is adding support for Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) — algorithms designed to resist attacks from quantum computers. Traditional public-key algorithms like RSA and Diffie-Hellman are vulnerable to future quantum computing threats. This session from JavaOne 2026 covers PQC-related features already delivered in the JDK and what is planned for JDK 27 and beyond.
