Chrome users have reported difficulties connecting to websites, servers, and firewalls following the release of Chrome 124, which introduced quantum-resistant encryption. The widespread problem also includes issues with enabling audio for music and videos. The Google Security team launched a hybrid postquantum TLS key exchange to protect against future quantum decryption attacks, but compatibility issues with older systems have led to broken connections
Experts suggest the need for server-based upgrades to align with browser enhancements and emphasize the importance of deploying postquantum algorithms. Despite the current breakages, they believe fixes will be released over time, advocating for widespread deployment of postquantum algorithms to enhance security. ```https://www.scmagazine.com/news/chrome-users-report-broken-connections-after-chrome-124-release
