Why it matters
The NCSC has published updated recommendations for configuring post-quantum cryptography in TLS protocols. Organizations should begin migrating their TLS implementations to incorporate post-quantum-safe cryptographic algorithms. This shift is essential to protect against future threats from quantum computing capabilities and ensure long-term security of encrypted communications.
What changed
- NCSC publishes new guidance on configuring post-quantum cryptography specifically for TLS implementations
- Recommendations now cover migration strategies for organizations to transition from classical to post-quantum cryptographic algorithms
Who is affected
Organizations and system administrators responsible for TLS configuration and cryptographic infrastructure across all sectors in the UK
