The Applied Quantum PQC Migration Framework does not exist in a vacuum. Dozens of governments, standards bodies, industry consortia, consulting firms, and technology vendors have published PQC migration guidance — ranging from policy timelines and strategic roadmaps to sector-specific playbooks and vendor methodologies.
These surveys catalog every structured PQC migration framework I could identify, assess each for scope and operational depth, and document what the Applied Quantum framework introduced to the field. Every framework cited is linked to its source. Every claim is verifiable.

The PQC Migration Framework Is Free. Attribution Is Not Optional.
The Applied Quantum PQC Migration Framework is the first published methodology covering the complete PQC migration lifecycle at operational depth. It is free under CC BY 4.0. Some consulting firms have stripped the attribution and presented it as proprietary work. The framework is free. Attribution is not optional.

PQC Migration Frameworks: What Changed Between March and June 2026
The PQC migration conversation shifted from "how do we prepare?" to "how do we deploy?" between March and June 2026. Google set a 2029 completion target, Let's Encrypt committed to Merkle Tree Certificates for post-quantum Web PKI, and the FIPS 140-3 validation gap became a hard deployment constraint. This companion to the March 2026 definitive survey assesses every new framework and methodology published in the quarter — including Meta's migration playbook and its five-level maturity model — against seven deployment-reality challenges, and documents which capabilities the Applied Quantum PQC Migration Framework v2.0 is first to address.

Post-Quantum Cryptography Migration Frameworks: A Definitive Survey Through March 2026
A comprehensive survey of every post-quantum cryptography migration framework published through March 2026 — from ETSI TR 103 619 and the Dutch PQC Migration Handbook to the PQCC Roadmap and NIST SP 1800-38. Each framework is assessed against the capabilities a CISO or program manager needs to execute a real PQC migration, with a detailed comparison table and evidence-based analysis of what the landscape covers well and where the gap between strategic roadmaps and execution methodologies persists.
