Agencies urge organizations to assess vendor readiness for post-quantum cryptography
Published: 5 Nov 2026 · United States
CISA, ASD's ACSC, and NSA released guidance to help organizations evaluate if vendors are prepared to transition to post-quantum cryptography. This is crucial as quantum computing threatens current cryptographic protections, especially for systems relying on third-party vendors.
Who is at risk
Organizations using third-party vendors for cryptography-dependent services
How to protect yourself
- Ask vendors about their understanding of quantum-related cryptographic risks
- Request transparency on current cryptographic implementations
- Ensure vendors have plans for timely transition to post-quantum cryptography
