VeraCrypt uses block ciphers (AES, Serpent, Twofish) for its encryption. Quantum attacks against these block ciphers are just a faster brute-force since the best know attack against these algorithms is exhaustive search (related keys attacks are irrelevant
to our case because all keys are random and independent from each other).<br>

Since VeraCrypt always uses 256-bit random and independent keys (except for SM4 cipher which uses 128-bit key by design), we are assured of a 128-bit security<br>
