Previously published as Implementing and Maintaining Post-Quantum Cryptography in an Organization by Arthur Steel.
SECOND EDITION — UPDATED THROUGH OCTOBER 2026
Post-quantum cryptography is no longer just a standards problem. It is an enterprise migration problem.
Organizations must identify where vulnerable cryptography exists, determine what needs to move first, modernize protocols and trust systems, coordinate vendors, test interoperability, manage exceptions, and prove that the transition is actually reducing risk.
Implementing and Maintaining Post-Quantum Cryptography in an Organization is a practical, enterprise-focused playbook for turning PQC from an emerging security concern into a governed, testable, and operational program.
This substantially revised Second Edition incorporates major developments through October 2026, including:
• FIPS 203 — ML-KEM
• FIPS 204 — ML-DSA
• FIPS 205 — SLH-DSA
• NIST SP 800-227 guidance for Key-Encapsulation Mechanisms
• Updated NIST crypto-agility guidance
• Executive Order 14412 and OMB M-26-15
• October 2026 NSA, CNSS, and CNSA 2.0 developments for National Security Systems
• RFC 10024 for post-quantum/traditional hybrid TLS 1.3 key agreement
• RFC 10042 for hybrid SSH key exchange
• Updated treatment of HQC and emerging PQC standards
• Expanded coverage of both harvest-now-decrypt-later and long-lived trust and signature risk
Inside, you’ll learn how to:
• Discover and maintain an inventory of cryptographic dependencies
• Build CBOM-style visibility across applications, infrastructure, certificates, keys, and vendors
• Prioritize migration using data lifetime, exposure, complexity, and business impact
• Define approved cryptographic standards, profiles, and crypto-agility requirements
• Plan hybrid and PQC migrations without creating permanent legacy paths
• Modernize TLS, mTLS, PKI, HSM/KMS, SSH, signing, cloud, SaaS, endpoints, IoT, and OT environments
• Design pilots, interoperability tests, downgrade-resistance tests, monitoring, and rollback controls
• Manage third-party roadmaps, contracts, cryptographic dependencies, and vendor blockers
• Build audit-ready evidence, metrics, exception governance, and migration-wave reporting
• Correctly distinguish commercial, civilian Federal, and National Security System requirements
Built for practitioners
This book is written for security leaders, cybersecurity architects, security engineers, PKI and identity teams, platform and SRE teams, cloud engineers, DevSecOps, IT operations, risk and compliance professionals, and vendor-management teams.
If you need more than an explanation of why quantum computing threatens RSA and ECC—and need a practical framework for discovering, prioritizing, designing, testing, migrating, operating, and governing post-quantum cryptography—this book is designed for you.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
