This article focuses on the federal government's strategic migration to post-quantum cryptography, specifically detailing GSA's role in updating identity systems and access controls to withstand future quantum decryption threats. The initiative represents a critical policy shift driven by executive orders to modernize encryption standards before quantum computing capabilities render current algorithms obsolete.
GSA Outlines Transition to Quantum-Resistant Technology

Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — As the Administration advances its updated Cyber Strategy [PDF] and new Executive Order on Ushering in the Next Frontier of Quantum Innovation, GSA’s Office of Government-wide Policy, Federal Identity & Cybersecurity Division has been entrusted with critical responsibilities for protecting federal identity and building access systems, including supporting the governmentwide migration to post-quantum […]
GSA is expanding its role in the federal government’s post-quantum cryptography transition by updating identity systems, access controls and interagency coordination. The agency is modernizing the FICAM architecture and adding quantum-resistant algorithms to testing for federal building access and credential systems. A new GSA-led interagency working group, which first met Aug. 12 with 40 participants from 17 agencies, will address identity and access-management issues in the post-quantum environment. PRESS…
