0xBASE INTEL BRIEF

.NET 10.0 adds three PQC algorithms: ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA.
Microsoft does not implement FIPS 206 (FALCON).
Supported on Windows 11 25H2, Server 2025, and via OpenSSL 3.5.

"Microsoft has added the three NIST-standardized post-quantum cryptography algorithms to .NET 10.0: ML-KEM (FIPS 203), ML-DSA (FIPS 204), and SLH-DSA (FIPS 205). It deliberately omits FIPS 206 (FN-DSA/FALCON), citing no need for .NET workloads. The new classes reside in System.Security.Cryptography. Support is built into Windows 11 25H2 and Windows Server 2025; macOS and Linux require OpenSSL 3.5."
