How to Set Up a Quantum-Resistant VPN in Uganda

1

Choose a Quantum-Safe Protocol

Select either Kyber-1024 or NTRU Prime as your encryption protocol. These are currently the most secure against quantum attacks.

sudo apt-get install openvpn-quantum

2

Configure Your Local Server

Set up your Ubuntu 24.04 LTS server with the new UCC (Uganda Communications Commission) approved quantum encryption modules.

nano /etc/openvpn/server/quantum.conf

3

Generate Quantum-Safe Certificates

Use Uganda's National CA new quantum-resistant certificate authority:

openssl req -x509 -new -newkey kyber1024 -keyout server.key -out server.crt -days 365

4

Connect Your Devices

Download the Uganda Quantum VPN app from Google Play Store or Apple App Store and scan your QR configuration file.

Note: This service requires at least Android 14 or iOS 18 with quantum crypto support.
