The quantum threat and the migration to post-quantum cryptography: standards, timelines, method.
Since August, cryptanalysis work has put Classic McEliece below its claimed security level. The BSI advises against it for new projects, though no practical attack exists to date.
On October 6 and 7, the audit body of the US Congress and Europol published reports urging organizations to prepare for the transition to post-quantum cryptography.
Cloudflare announced on September 29 that it wants to become a public certificate authority, with Merkle Tree Certificates designed for post-quantum signatures. The first Merkle Tree Certificates are expected in early 2027.
Inventory, data lifetime, quick wins on TLS and SSH, vendors, procurement, crypto-agility: a practical method for starting your migration to post-quantum cryptography.
No, ANSSI is not banning RSA in 2027. Hybridization, product qualification, purchases after 2030, inventory: what the agency's FAQ and official publications say precisely about the post-quantum migration.
Standards published, protocols switching over, European and French timelines, a reassessed threat: a full update on post-quantum cryptography, backed by official sources.
