The National Quantum Cybersecurity Migration Strategy Act of 2025.
The National Quantum Cybersecurity Migration Strategy Act of 2025 directs a Senate subcommittee to create a comprehensive plan for moving federal agencies to post-quantum cryptography (cryptography resistant to quantum attacks). The bill requires defining what counts as a quantum computer that can threaten current cryptography, establishing standards for when a quantum computer has reached that point, and assessing urgency and readiness for each agency. It also creates a four-stage migration framework with measurable performance targets, and a pilot program requiring sector risk management agencies to upgrade at least one high-impact federal system to post-quantum cryptography by early 2027. Additional provisions task the Office of Electronic Government to cost migration efforts and guide private-sector adoption, and require a Congress-wide report within a year and ongoing annual assessments by the Comptroller General. In short, the bill aims to nationalize the planning, prioritization, and initial implementation of quantum-resistant security across federal systems, with explicit timelines, pilot testing, cost analysis, and ongoing oversight.
