  1. Bringing post-quantum cryptography to geographically fenced key management

    Cloudflare introduced a post-quantum geographically restricted key manager in closed beta to enforce data sovereignty and protect customers against harvest-now-decrypt-later attacks.

This ensures that decryption keys are only accessible within authorized geographical boundaries and fails closed if validation fails.
