For years, the protection of site-to-site network traffic lagged far behind that of web traffic. At Cloudflare, over 66% of TLS connections from human users now enjoy post-quantum safeguards, but the same couldn't be said for IPsec tunnels. That gap is now officially closed. This month, Cloudflare announced general availability of post-quantum encryption for its IPsec service, moving its full post-quantum target forward to 2029.
