Google has announced a 2029 deadline to complete its migration to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) across all systems, products, and services. The announcement highlights both encryption and authentication as key concerns, with store-now-decrypt-later attacks being an immediate threat and digital signature vulnerabilities a future risk. Google is already rolling out PQC in its infrastructure, with Android 17 integrating ML-DSA digital signature protection. NIST's standards published in 2024 serve as the roadmap. Experts advise organizations of all sizes to begin inventorying cryptographic usage, engage service providers about their PQC plans, and prioritize crypto agility to ensure systems can adapt as standards evolve.
