Design and Evaluation of a Post-Quantum Secure DevOps Pipeline Using Falcon, Dilithium, and Kyber

Vishnu Ajith, Muhammad Ibrahim, Muhammed Sihan Haroon

This work presents the design and evaluation of a Post-Quantum Secure DevOps Pipeline integrating Falcon, Dilithium, and Kyber within automated CI/CD workflows. The implementation combines Open Quantum Safe (OQS), GitHub Actions, Docker, Prometheus, and Grafana to evaluate operational feasibility, cryptographic latency, verification performance, and quantum-safe deployment readiness. The study demonstrates that post-quantum cryptography can be integrated into practical DevSecOps environments with minimal operational overhead while maintaining strong cryptographic assurance against future quantum threats.

Post-Quantum Public Key Infrastructures: Hybrid Certificates, Cryptographic Combiners, and Migration Strategies

Abdullah Aydeger, Engin Zeydan, Awaneesh Kumar Yadav +1 more

The impending threat posed by quantum-capable adversaries necessitates a secure and practical transition of Public Key Infrastructures (PKIs) to support post-quantum cryptography (PQC). This paper addresses the multifaceted challenges of integrating PQC into existing PKI ecosystems by examining novel cryptographic combiners and hybrid certificate designs that can provide quantum-resistant security. We assess the performance, compatibility, and security of these hybrid certificates across standard communication protocols such as TLS, considering variations in root and intermediate certification paths. In addition, we introduce key management procedures that cover signature generation, validation, and lifecycle considerations under both software and hardware constraints. Beyond X.509, alternative trust models and certificate mechanisms are also analyzed for specialized domains, including IoT, firmware signing, and smart cards.
