Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Readiness and Validation Status
Federal agency · Washington, Washington, DC · Sources Sought
https://feedback.gsa.gov/jfe/form/SV_3t6dNlgkS4Vg6iy Federal agencies are preparing for the transition from cryptographic algorithms that may be vulnerable to future quantum computing attacks to quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms standardized by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Public key cryptographic algorithms (i.e. asymmetric cryptography) currently used across Federal information systems, products and services — including Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (RSA), elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman(ECDH), elliptic curve digital signature algorithms (ECDSA), and related mechanisms — will be vulnerable to a future cryptanalytically relevant quantum computer (CRQC). As a result, Federal agencies are expected to identify, prioritize, and migrate quantum-vulnerable cryptogra…
