Post-quantum updates to our TLS guidance
NCSC says organizations should deploy post-quantum TLS now, completing high-priority migration by 2031.
NCSC said its updated TLS guidance aligns with published post-quantum migration timelines, under which high-priority work should be finished by 2031. Protecting confidentiality of data in transit is in that category, and standardized post-quantum TLS configurations are already available in well-studied libraries. The agency plans to update IPsec guidance as related RFCs are finalized and to add post-quantum authentication recommendations for TLS.
- High-priority PQC migration should be done by 2031.
- Data-in-transit confidentiality is treated as high priority.
- Standardized post-quantum TLS is ready to deploy now.
- IPsec and TLS authentication guidance updates are planned.
