- 7Cloudflare Blog·7/29/2026securityCloudflare adds post-quantum authentication for origin connections
Cloudflare now supports post-quantum authentication for Authenticated Origin Pulls and Custom Origin Trust Store, enabling mutually authenticated TLS connections to origin servers using ML-DSA signatures. The update extends Cloudflare’s post-quantum roadmap beyond encryption to protect origin traffic against future quantum-enabled impersonation attacks.
- 7Cloudflare Blog·7/9/2026securityCloudflare urges faster adoption of post-quantum signatures
Cloudflare says RSA and ECC will eventually be vulnerable to sufficiently advanced quantum computers, and that migration to post-quantum cryptography is already underway. The company is prioritizing ML-KEM for encryption today and argues that post-quantum signature algorithms, especially ML-DSA for now, are still needed to fully secure authentication systems while better standards continue to mature.
- 8The New Stack·7/6/2026securityMicrosoft, Google and Cloudflare Move Quantum-Safe Deadline to 2029
Microsoft, Google and Cloudflare say organizations should prepare to move to post-quantum cryptography by 2029, a year earlier than prior end-of-decade targets. The companies argue that cryptographically relevant quantum computers may arrive sooner than expected, making migration a multi-year security effort that should start now.
