Quantum-Resistant Native Go Programs: Taking the Leap

Ports the Kyber KEM and Dilithium signature reference C implementations to native Go, adds side‑channel countermeasures, and publishes the code on GitHub. Benchmarks show core calls from fractions up to 2 ms and output sizes of 1–3 MB; integrating into WireGuard costs 0.2 ms overhead and two extra IP packets. Claims practical, faster runtime than Go’s ECDSA/RSA equivalents for comparable classical security, and reports hardening against published implementation attacks.
