Also available as Inside Java Podcast #58:

With JDK 27 introducing hybrid key exchange schemes that combine ML-KEM with traditional ECDHE algorithms, Java applications can gain TLS-layer protection against the "harvest-now, decrypt-later" threat without rewriting business logic.

In this episode of the Inside Java Newscast, Ana explains post-quantum hybrid key exchange for TLS 1.3 and demonstrates how a Java application can take advantage of it.
