NSA suite
CNSA 2.0 defines approved algorithms and deadline tiers for national-security systems — 2030–2033 for most transitions.
Framework
Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite 2.0
Deadline: 2030–2033
The NSA Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite 2.0 (CNSA 2.0) replaces Suite B with quantum-resistant algorithm requirements for national security systems. ISSOs and defense contractors must map current algorithms to CNSA tiers and demonstrate migration progress.
CNSA 2.0 sets phased deadlines through 2030–2033 depending on system classification and algorithm usage. Align inventory prioritization to earliest applicable tier — not NSM-10's 2035 horizon alone.
CNSA 2.0 approves ML-KEM, ML-DSA, and SLH-DSA for applicable use cases. Inventory must identify systems still on RSA, ECDSA, or legacy DH.
Systems seeking authorization to operate (ATO) or CMMC certification need evidence of crypto inventory and migration planning. Signed Qtangl reports with /verify support ISSO packages — inventory aid, not authorization decision.
Algorithm classification against CNSA tiers, deadline-tier backlog prioritization, re-scan verification after each migration phase.
