PQC in Plaintext: Google Cloud’s post-quantum cryptography roadmap
Securing infrastructure and services against a future cryptographically-relevant quantum computer has been a goal for Google for a decade, and we’ve dedicated ourselves to help developers by advancing open standards that can benefit everyone. As post-quantum cryptography (PQC) has matured, we’ve been rolling it out in our infrastructure for internal and customer-facing services. Today, we're sharing our updated Google Cloud roadmap to migrate to PQC by 2029. Our strategy: Secure by design We’ve based our PQC migration strategy on the Google Quantum Threat Model, prioritizing protection across three key domains: Mitigating Store Now, Decrypt Later (SNDL) risks : Protecting today's [...]
