Google Cloud has updated its post-quantum cryptography roadmap, aiming for full readiness by 2029 while continuing some work into the 2030s. The plan focuses on reducing Store Now Decrypt Later risk, strengthening signatures and identity protections, and expanding quantum-safe infrastructure across services like Google Cloud KMS, Cloud VPN, and BigQuery. #GoogleCloud #GoogleCloudKMS #CloudVPN #BigQuery #NIST #CNSA20
Keypoints
- Google Cloud plans to be fully ready for post-quantum cryptography by 2029.
- The roadmap prioritizes reducing Store Now Decrypt Later risk across key services.
- Google Cloud already uses ML-KEM in hybrid mode on major API endpoints.
- Cloud KMS now supports NIST-standardized post-quantum algorithms for key exchange and signatures.
- Customers are urged to inventory cryptographic assets, update tooling, and test quantum-safe APIs.
