Is Your Organization Ready for the Post-Quantum Era?
Utimaco’s 2025 PQC Survey reveals just how urgent quantum-resistant cryptographic readiness has become. With NIST’s IR 8547 setting firm deadlines — phasing out classical algorithms by 2030 and banning them by 2035 — organizations must act now to future-proof their cryptographic infrastructure.
Based on insights from over 200 security professionals worldwide, including IT leaders, developers, and executives, this report uncovers real-world strategies, challenges, and timelines shaping the global migration to post-quantum cryptography.
Key Findings

Key findings about the respondent’s PQC migration include:
- 63% identify Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) as an urgent priority
- 20% have already started their PQC migration
- 56% struggle with legacy systems
- Only 12% consider Quantum Key Distribution a viable solution
- For 49%, responsibility of the migration lies with the CISO or CT
