SummaryAI, from the source post

Introduced Post-Quantum Cloudflare Tunnel, a beta feature that enables post-quantum secure connections between the `cloudflared` service and Cloudflare's network using hybrid key exchanges (X25519Kyber512Draft00 and X25519Kyber768Draft00). This is achieved by restricting `cloudflared` to the QUIC transport and only allowing these specific post-quantum hybrid key exchanges. The feature is opt-in via the `--post-quantum` flag or `post-quantum: true` in the configuration file. The post also details the motivation for post-quantum cryptography, the current limitations (browser and inter-data center connections are not yet post-quantum secure), and provides troubleshooting information.
