From Policy to Practice: Navigating the Latest Federal PQC Directives

Post-quantum cryptography has rapidly become a federal cybersecurity priority. Recent Executive Orders, National Security Memoranda, OMB guidance, NIST standards, NSA recommendations and agency directives have shifted the conversation from future planning to active implementation.

While the direction is clear, many agencies and technology providers are still determining what this means in practice. What capabilities are expected? Where should organizations begin? And how can they prepare for a successful transition while minimizing future risk?

Join us as we break down the latest PQC directives, explain how they fit together and discuss what they mean for government cybersecurity and modernization efforts. This webinar provides the context and practical guidance needed to turn evolving federal policy into actionable next steps.

What you’ll learn:

• How recent PQC directives fit together and what has changed
• What agencies should be doing today to prepare for PQC migration
• Why cryptographic inventory, discovery and crypto-agility are foundational to a successful transition
• How FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography and NIST-standardized PQC algorithms support federal modernization efforts
• Practical steps for building a phased, risk-based PQC migration roadmap
