+Kyber comes in 512, 768, 1024 security strengths. This implementation only supports the security strength of 768 at the moment. In the future these strengths will be implemented as well as any updates if changes are made to the design.
 
 This code is the most up to date version based off the [NIST PQC Round 3 Submissions](https://csrc.nist.gov/projects/post-quantum-cryptography/round-3-submissions).
 
 ## Functionality
 
-**KYBER-768** will securely distribute a 256 bit symmetric key between two parties. To safely transmit data over a channel using the key, AES-256 along with HMAC-SHA256 are recommended.
