Chrome has negotiated hybrid post-quantum key agreement by default since version 131 in November 2024, migrating from a pre-standard Kyber draft to the finalized X25519MLKEM768. The other major browsers and libraries followed. Here is how the switch happened, and what the hybrid does and does not protect.
NIST's transition report, IR 8547, names the dates the whole migration is timed against: today's public-key algorithms deprecated after 2030 and disallowed after 2035. Those are not distant abstractions, they are a schedule you have to work backwards from. Here is what the deadlines say and what they mean.
CISA, with the NSA, FBI, and international partners, replaced the 2021 NTIA baseline for what a software bill of materials must contain. The new floor asks for cryptographic hashes on every component, a signature on the SBOM itself, full transitive-dependency depth, and machine-processable identifiers, and it applies to open-source, AI software, and SaaS. Here is what changed, why it was done, and why it lands next to the cryptographic bill of materials we build.
Most post-quantum material is one of two things: a vendor pitch that tells you to panic, or a standard that assumes you already have a doctorate. We built the part in between and put it online for free. The quantakrypto knowledge base is 11 collections, 49 topics, an 85-term glossary, and straight answers, with reading paths for employees, IT, and leadership.
A machine can already ask a site what to crawl (robots.txt) and who to email about a bug (security.txt). It cannot ask what cryptography the site runs or how far along its post-quantum migration is. We are proposing a small well-known file that answers exactly that, and shipping the emitter in qScan. It is a proposal, not a ratified standard.
