D6.2 Risk Assessment Internal Legal Report

In the context of PQ-REACT Project, the present legal research aims to consider both the traditional functions of cryptography and the further goals and functions that cryptography can help to pursue in the framework of different legal provisions. Thus, the transition to a post quantum cryptography environment can be governed and addressed also considering different level of risks and different levels of urgency in the need or opportunity to protect information available in different contexts. The present deliverable includes an initial identification of the possible ranges of security, requested by legislation and regulation, based on different levels of risk and that can be applied to the transition towards a PQC.
