Certificate Mechanisms for Transitioning to Post-Quantum Cryptography (Q01c)
As the NIST Post-Quantum-Cryptography (PQC) competition progresses, industry groups and standards bodies are exploring mechanisms for managing and easing the upgrading of public key infrastructure. This session will examine proposals from the X9 consortium and the IETF, focusing on hybrid mechanisms that facilitate incremental migration between classical and post-quantum algorithms. Attendees will gain insights into use cases, relative advantages and disadvantages, and the current state of adoption and API support.
