Impact of the US No-Exceptions Approach to Quantum Migration

U.S. federal agencies submitted post-quantum migration plans that mandate prioritizing legacy systems for replacement or decommissioning when migration is not feasible. Asia-Pacific regulators have adopted a different approach, favoring containment strategies rather than requiring system replacement.

Why it matters: U.S. federal contractors and organizations operating in multiple regions face divergent compliance requirements: the U.S. no-exceptions replacement mandate versus Asia-Pacific containment allowances, creating operational and budgeting complexity for practitioners managing legacy infrastructure.
