CISA published an initial list of hardware and software product categories that support or are expected to support post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards, following Executive Order 14306 issued on June 6 2025 and compiled with the National Security Agency (NSA). The guidance covers cloud services, collaboration and web software, endpoint security, and networking hardware and software, while additional categories such as identity and access management (IAM) systems and enterprise security software are still transitioning; organizations are told to prioritize PQC-capable products for future procurements, and automated cryptographic discovery tools plus OT and IoT devices are outside the current scope.
