Requirements

Completion of Course 1 (Quantum Computing & Cybersecurity: What Every Security Professional Must Know) or equivalent knowledge of quantum threat fundamentals and Shor's/Grover's algorithm impacts on cryptography

Solid working knowledge of classical public-key cryptography: RSA, elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), and Diffie-Hellman/ECDH key exchange

Familiarity with symmetric cryptography: AES, SHA-2/SHA-3, and standard block cipher modes of operation

Understanding of TLS/SSL protocols and PKI concepts including certificate chains, certificate authorities, and certificate lifecycle management

Basic comfort with mathematical notation: modular arithmetic, vectors, and matrix operations, full linear algebra expertise is not required

Professional background in IT security, network security, software development, or cryptographic engineering is strongly recommended

No quantum hardware or specialized cryptographic software required, all algorithms are explored through analysis, design, and migration planning
Description
The NIST post-quantum cryptography standards are finalized. FIPS 203, FIPS 204, FIPS 205, and FIPS 206 are no longer drafts, they are the law of the land for any organization handling sensitive data. If you work in cybersecurity, cryptographic infrastructure, compliance, or software development, mastering these standards is no longer optional. This course is where that mastery begins.
Post-Quantum Cryptography: The NIST Standards Explained is the second course in the Evaluris Quantum Security Track, a rigorous, professional-grade curriculum built for security practitioners who need more than awareness.
You already know why the quantum threat is real. In this course, you learn exactly what to do about it.
You will work through each of the four finalized NIST post-quantum standards in depth:
FIPS 203 - ML-KEM (Module-Lattice-Based Key-Encapsulation Mechanism) Derived from CRYSTALS-Kyber, ML-KEM is NIST's primary recommendation for quantum-resistant key exchange. You will understand the Module Learning With Errors (MLWE) hardness problem, the NTT-accelerated polynomial arithmetic that makes ML-KEM practical, and the parameter sets (ML-KEM-512, ML-KEM-768, ML-KEM-1024) and their security/performance trade-offs. You will see how ML-KEM is already displacing ECDH in TLS 1.3 and SSH, and how to evaluate and plan for its integration in your infrastructure.
FIPS 204 - ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) Derived from CRYSTALS-Dilithium, ML-DSA is the primary quantum-resistant replacement for RSA and ECDSA signatures. You will learn the Fiat-Shamir-with-Aborts construction, the Module-LWE and Module-SIS security assumptions, and how to compare the three parameter sets (ML-DSA-44, ML-DSA-65, ML-DSA-87) against your signature performance and key size Requirements. Certificate authorities, code signing, and document authentication workflows are all addressed.
FIPS 205 - SLH-DSA (Stateless Hash-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) Derived from SPHINCS+, SLH-DSA provides a critical backup digital signature standard built on hash function security rather than lattice hardness assumptions. You will explore the HORST and FORS few-time signature constructions, hypertree structures, and the twelve parameter sets spanning three security levels and two optimization targets (fast vs. small). Understanding when to deploy SLH-DSA over ML-DSA, and why NIST standardized both - is a skill this course delivers.
FIPS 206 - FN-DSA (FALCON / FFT NTRU-Based Digital Signature Algorithm) The fourth NIST standard brings NTRU lattice mathematics and a Fast Fourier Transform Gaussian sampler to produce compact signatures with exceptional efficiency. You will analyze FALCON-512 and FALCON-1024, understand the hardness of NTRU problems, and evaluate FN-DSA's role in constrained environments - IoT, embedded systems, and high-throughput authentication pipelines - where ML-DSA's larger signatures are a liability.
Understanding algorithms is only half the work.
This course dedicates substantial coverage to what security professionals actually need on the job
- Hybrid Cryptography:How to run classical and post-quantum algorithms in parallel during the migration period, protecting against both classical and quantum adversaries simultaneously. Hybrid TLS, hybrid certificates, and hybrid key exchange patterns are all covered in detail.
- Cryptographic Agility: Designing systems that can swap cryptographic primitives without architectural rework, the organizational capability that separates organizations that will migrate smoothly from those that will scramble.
- PKI Migration:Step-by-step analysis of how public key infrastructure must evolve, certificate formats, CA hierarchies, chain validation, and the PKIX standards work already underway to support PQC algorithms.
- TLS and Protocol Migration:How ML-KEM is integrated into TLS 1.3 via the hybrid key exchange groups defined in IETF standards, and what that means for your firewall, IDS/IPS, and deep packet inspection infrastructure.
- Regulatory Compliance: NSA CNSA 2.0 timelines, CISA PQC advisories, OMB M-23-02 (U.S. federal migration mandate), and NIST SP 800-131A transition guidance, mapped to practical compliance milestones for enterprise and government environments.
This course is built for working professionals, not academic researchers. Every module connects mathematical foundations directly to implementation decisions, compliance Requirements, and migration planning. You will find

Mathematically precise explanations, no hand-waving, but no unnecessary abstraction

Annotated walkthroughs of the actual FIPS standard documents

Algorithm comparison tables for parameter selection decisions

Migration planning frameworks you can apply immediately

Compliance checklists aligned to CNSA 2.0 and federal directives
This is Course 2 of the Evaluris Quantum Security Track. While prior completion of Course 1 (Quantum Computing & Cybersecurity: What Every Security Professional Must Know) is the ideal preparation, any security professional with solid classical cryptography knowledge - RSA, ECC, TLS, PKI can succeed in this course.
This course is designed for security architects, PKI administrators, CISOs, compliance officers, cryptographic engineers, and senior developers who are responsible for the systems that quantum computing will break, and for building the systems that will replace them. If your organization needs to comply with CNSA 2.0, respond to a PQC readiness audit, or begin migrating cryptographic infrastructure, this course gives you the technical foundation to lead that effort.
The cryptographic infrastructure the world depends on is being replaced. The NIST standards are published. The regulatory timelines are set. The only variable is whether you are ready to lead the transition, or scrambling to keep up with it.
Enroll now and build the post-quantum cryptography expertise your organization needs.
