About the Webinar
From PQC Roadmap to Procurement-Ready is a virtual webinar addressing the practical steps technology vendors must take to demonstrate post-quantum cryptography readiness to defense and National Security System customers. With the 2027 CNSA 2.0 transition milestone approaching, vendors face increasing pressure to show tangible progress beyond initial roadmap development. The session provides guidance on turning PQC strategies into actionable, defensible plans that satisfy acquisition and procurement requirements.
Key Topics
The webinar covers cryptographic inventory development and the creation of a cryptographic bill of materials (CBOM) to identify dependencies across products. Attendees will learn approaches to legacy algorithm identification and risk-based migration planning. The session also addresses crypto-agility, the capability to support multiple cryptographic algorithms including ML-KEM, which enables organizations to adapt as standards evolve. A central theme is demonstrating PQC readiness to customers and acquisition teams in a verifiable manner.
CNSA 2.0 and Procurement Context
The Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite 2.0 establishes cryptographic requirements for National Security Systems, with a 2027 transition milestone driving urgency for vendors. Organizations supplying products to defense and national security customers must demonstrate compliance readiness during procurement processes. The webinar addresses how vendors can communicate their migration progress and cryptographic capabilities to acquisition teams evaluating PQC preparedness.
Who Should Attend
The webinar is intended for technology vendors preparing products for defense and National Security System environments. Relevant roles include CISOs, CTOs, product security teams, engineering leaders, enterprise architects and cryptography professionals. Federal sales teams, business development professionals and capture teams involved in acquisition processes will also find the content applicable to their procurement readiness efforts.
