Post-Quantum Cryptography Migration Reference Guide for the Financial Industry to Strengthen Preparedness for Quantum-Related Risks
The Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) has released the Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Migration Reference Guide for the Financial Industry to help financial institutions address cybersecurity risks from quantum computing and strengthen preparedness for quantum-related risks. This Guide provides key considerations and recommendations across areas such as governance, cryptographic asset inventory, crypto-agility, ecosystem collaboration, risk prioritization, supply chain management, and testing, enabling a risk-based and phased migration. It outlines seven strategic directions for PQC migration and suggests a phased implementation timeline, with initial governance and inventory work in 2026–2027, pilot testing and infrastructure upgrades in 2027–2029, and high-risk system migration through 2035.
