France is accelerating its transition to post-quantum encryption:
France’s cybersecurity agency ANSSI said on Tuesday it would stop certifying security products that lack quantum-resistant encryption, a move that will force government bodies and critical operators to shift away from older systems.
Samih Souissi, ANSSI’s chief of staff, said at the France Quantum conference that the agency would halt such certifications from 2027, and that businesses should be buying only quantum-safe products by 2030.
ANSSI approval is required for use in French government agencies and critical infrastructure, making the policy a de facto phase-out of older encryption.
