NIST finalized FIPS 203, 204 and 205 for post-quantum key establishment and signatures, while IR 8547 remained a transition draft identifying vulnerable standards and deprecation/disallow timelines.

What would change the reading
Update with final transition guidance, protocol profiles, implementation validation and organizational migration metrics.
