From the github page:“Arnika is a compact, lightweight external extension for Wireguard VPN, engineered to incorporate symmetric keys as Pre-Shared Keys (PSK) into Wireguard. This integration ensures the establishment of a quantum-secure VPN (safeguarding against compromise of session keys). It gathers a 256-bit symmetric encryption key from a Key Management System (KMS) within a Quantum… Read more »
