On August 13th, 2023, NIST published three additional post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards, marking a critical milestone for both vendors and organizations. These new standards are crucial not only for implementing and testing interoperability but also for enabling public and private sector entities to begin their migration to PQC. This presentation will address the essential topic of cryptography inventory—exploring what it is, why it’s necessary, and what components it should include. We will delve into current trends, tools, and best practices for building and maintaining a comprehensive cryptography inventory that can support the transition to post-quantum cryptography standards, ensuring robust security in the quantum era. Budgetary considerations will be set aside to focus solely on the technical and operational challenges of inventory management.
