Post-Quantum Code Signing How-to

As the time to roll out new Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms gets closer, it is wise to establish a high level of crypto agility in your organization and to try out the new algorithms as final candidate implementations become available from the NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography competition.

This guide demonstrates code signing based on SignServer using the post-quantum SPHINCS+ algorithm through Bouncy Castle and allows you to try out creating post-quantum keys and signatures.
