EditorialPost-Quantum Secure Channel Model
The transition to post-quantum cryptography introduces new design constraints for secure communication channels. These constraints extend beyond algorithm selection to include cryptographic agility, interoperability across heterogeneous environments, long-term confidentiality, and institutional auditability. This Pre-Standard defines an abstract model for a Post-Quantum Secure Channel (PQSC).
