The next hard deadlines are in 2030 (NIST IR 8547) and 2033 (NSA CNSA 2.0).
Recent changelog
| Date | Type | Mandate | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jan 15, 2026 | Status | NSANSA Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite 2… | NSA confirmed CNSA 2.0 timelines remain in effect. The January 2025 software/firmware Begin Migration deadline passed; NSA noted that National Security System operators are expected to show documented progress toward CNSA 2.0 adoption. |
| Jan 1, 2026 | Status | NSANSA Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite 2… | Networking equipment BEGIN_MIGRATION deadline reached. NSS network equipment vendors required to have begun CNSA 2.0 transition. |
| Nov 1, 2025 | Clarification | ENISAEU NIS2 Directive — Cryptography & PQC Provisions | ENISA published updated PQC technical guidelines incorporating FIPS 206 (FN-DSA) and referencing final NIST IR 8547 timelines as a benchmark for EU entity migration planning. |
| Oct 1, 2025 | Clarification | CSACSA Singapore Post-Quantum Cryptography Advisory | CSA updated advisory to reference finalised NIST FIPS 203/204/205/206 and align Singapore CII operator guidance with the 2025 cryptographic inventory milestone. |
| Sep 1, 2025 | Clarification | ANSSIANSSI Position Paper on Post-Quantum Cryptography | ANSSI updated PQC guidance to reflect finalization of NIST FIPS 206 and IR 8547, maintaining its position that hybrid schemes should remain the standard approach until PQC algorithms have accumulated further operational validation. |
| Aug 1, 2025 | Clarification | ASDASD Post-Quantum Cryptography Guidance | ASD updated guidance to reflect finalised NIST FIPS 206 and IR 8547, adding FN-DSA to monitored algorithms and reaffirming alignment with NSA CNSA 2.0 timelines. |
