EO 14409 orders federal PQC migration
Public Sector Action
Summary
Hide ▲
Show ▼
EO 14409 forces US federal agencies to accelerate their post-quantum cryptography (PQC) migration, imposing deadlines that reach 2030-2031 and affecting the security of high value assets and high impact systems. The order also assigns OMB a lead coordination role and adds a Commerce pilot project, turning quantum-safe migration into a federal cybersecurity program with concrete milestones. It matters because the transition is meant to protect sensitive data, critical infrastructure, and federal supply chains from future “harvest now, decrypt later” risk.
