-NIST is leading the way for standardization of a new class of algorithms designed to replace the public key cryptography algorithms that will become vulnerable to quantum computers. At the time of the writing of this passage, NIST has already standardized ML-DSA, ML-KEM, and SLH-DSA. Currently, standards organizations have various draft documents describing OIDs and codepoints. NIST is working on bringing these algorithms under the ubmbrella of the CMVP regulatory framework allowing for FIPS-140-3 validations of implementations of these algorithms.
