A recent report from the White House’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) finds that Federal agencies will need approximately $7.1 billion to transition their prioritized information systems to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) between 2025 and 2035. […]
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is gearing up to release its post-quantum cryptography (PQC) migration roadmap soon, a top CISA official revealed Tuesday. […]
The National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) has released two preliminary draft practice guides “to share insights and findings to ease migration from current public-key cryptographic algorithms to soon-to-be standardized” post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algorithms. […]
A White House official said Tuesday it’s critical that Federal agencies start testing quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms on their IT systems today to ensure critical networks aren’t accidentally shut down when the time comes to transition systems to post-quantum cryptography. […]
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) – alongside the National Security Agency (NSA) and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) – released a joint factsheet today encouraging early planning for migration to post-quantum cryptographic standards by developing a Quantum-Readiness Roadmap. “Quantum-Readiness: Migration to Post-Quantum Cryptography” is urging organizations – especially those that support critical infrastructure […]
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking comments on a preliminary draft of guidelines published Monday that aim to eventually detail how agencies can migrate to post-quantum cryptography. […]
The National Security Agency (NSA) expects National Security Systems (NSS) owners and vendors to start using post-quantum algorithms by 2035. […]
The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program has awarded QuSecure a Phase III contract, making the company the sole-source provider of post-quantum cryptography for Federal agencies. […]
