Scott Francis<p>part of the problem with reading some of the (generally quite good) literature on <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/PQC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PQC</span></a> adoption, standards development, and regulatory change is that much of it is at least a couple of years old now, and there's been so much evolution in just the past 12 months that things from e.g. 2022 are really out of date in places. <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/quantum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>quantum</span></a></p>
