Microsoft and SAP are accelerating enterprise post-quantum cryptography plans, with Microsoft moving its Quantum Safe Program toward a 2029 transition for its services and products while SAP adds hybrid post-quantum key exchange to TLS connections in SAP HANA cloud systems now. The news...

Microsoft moved its quantum-safe security target to 2029 this week, saying critical products and services must transition toward post-quantum cryptography sooner because quantum progress and new federal deadlines have compressed the planning window for governments, enterprises, and cloud...

Microsoft said on June 30, 2026, that it is accelerating its Quantum Safe Program so critical products and services move to post-quantum cryptography by 2029, folding the effort into its Secure Future Initiative as governments press for earlier quantum-resistant security deadlines. The...

President Donald Trump signed a June 22, 2026 executive order requiring federal agencies to name post-quantum cryptography transition leads within 30 days and move high-value assets and high-impact systems to quantum-resistant keys by December 31, 2030, with digital signatures due one year...

Microsoft’s recent security push for Windows 11 stitches together long‑running platform hardening with a clear push toward crypto‑agility, improved telemetry for defenders, and tighter controls over drivers, apps and networking — a package aimed at reducing catastrophic outages while preparing...

Microsoft’s 2033 Quantum‑Safe Deadline: What It Means for Windows, Azure, and Your Enterprise Microsoft has put a concrete stake in the ground for the post‑quantum era: enable early adoption of quantum‑safe capabilities by 2029 and complete the transition of its products and services by 2033...

Microsoft has set a firm, public timetable to make its entire product and service portfolio resilient to the quantum threat — committing to enable early adoption of quantum‑safe capabilities by 2029 and to complete a full transition to post‑quantum cryptography (PQC) across Windows, Azure...

Microsoft’s public roadmap for a quantum‑safe future is no longer a research manifesto: it’s a multi‑year engineering and procurement plan that maps how SymCrypt, Windows, Azure, Microsoft 365 and silicon will evolve to resist the cryptanalytic power of future quantum computers. The company has...

Microsoft’s public roadmap for a quantum-safe future marks a decisive shift: the company is moving from research experiments to a staged, product-level rollout of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) across its cryptographic libraries, identity systems, and hardware roots of trust — and it’s asking...

Microsoft is openly sketching a “Windows 2030 Vision” where talking to your PC becomes the default and the mouse-and-keyboard era starts to fade. In a new Microsoft video, David Weston, corporate vice president for Enterprise & OS Security, describes near‑term Windows builds evolving into a...

Quantum computing has long existed at the intersection of scientific ambition and active, real-world concern, particularly in the field of cybersecurity. While these machines, capable of performing calculations far beyond those of today's supercomputers, once seemed a distant dream, the...

Microsoft has taken a significant step in bolstering cybersecurity by integrating post-quantum cryptography (PQC) into Windows 11 and Linux systems. This proactive measure addresses the looming threat posed by quantum computers, which have the potential to break traditional encryption methods...

The world of cybersecurity is perpetually on alert, facing an unending procession of new threats that demand fresh defensive measures. However, a new frontier has started to crystallize on the horizon—one that many researchers and technology leaders now call the next great battle in...

Here’s a summary and analysis of Microsoft’s advances against quantum cyberattacks, especially the move to post-quantum cryptography (PQC), as described in your TechRadar article and the latest information from internal sources: What’s New in Windows 11’s Quantum-Resistant Security? 1. Quantum...
