  • OMB to create guidance for federal agencies to assess critical systems following the publication of post-quantum cryptography standards by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST);
  • Direct OMB to send an annual report to Congress that includes a strategy on how to address post-quantum cryptography risks.
