PQC in Plaintext: Google Cloud’s post-quantum cryptography roadmap
This allows users to prevent future quantum computers from decrypting currently stored data or forging identities. Customers must update their own software and configurations to maintain this security.
- Targeting full PQC readiness across Google Cloud by 2029
- NIST-standardized PQC algorithms (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA) generally available in Cloud KMS
- Quantum-safe key exchange enabled on Google Cloud API endpoints including google.com and *.googleapis.com
