Our development process includes the state-of-the-art cryptographic verification techniques, such as symbolic verification, to secure the protocol or using the Rust programming language to avoid issues such as remote code execution vulnerabilities through buffer overflows. Rosenpass provides the same security properties against quantum attacks that WireGuard provides against classical attacks.
