The initial public draft of NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-227, *Recommendations for Key-Encapsulation Mechanisms <https://links-1.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fcsrc.nist.gov%2Fpubs%2Fsp%2F800%2F227%2Fipd/1/010001943d1c9678-b32b0c0b-3f47-4373-b4ba-7cc20f849525-000000/rAMROuvjdAzNjb0pPVFAeFgix1YhMHSeth8omH5IeNE=386>*, is now available for public comment. NIST recently published Federal Information Process Standard (FIPS) 203, *Module-Lattice-Based Key-Encapsulation Mechanism Standard <https://links-1.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fcsrc.nist.gov%2Fpubs%2Ffips%2F203%2Ffinal/1/010001943d1c9678-b32b0c0b-3f47-4373-b4ba-7cc20f849525-000000/2dSqDG2gYWSZBah9BodQdynVrtxZt2DVR5xlKVl8qmI=386>*, to update its cryptographic standards with an algorithm designed to provide protection from quantum attacks. In addition, NIST will select one or two additional quantum-resistant key-encapsulation mechanisms (KEMs) for standardization. To provide guidance on using KEMs, NIST is introducing SP 800-227, *Recommendations for Key-Encapsulation Mechanisms*. This draft document describes the basic definitions, properties, and applications of KEMs. It also provides recommendations for implementing and using KEMs in a secure manner. The public comment period is open through *March 7, 2025*. See the *publication details <https://links-1.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fcsrc.nist.gov%2Fpubs%2Fsp%2F800%2F227%2Fipd/2/010001943d1c9678-b32b0c0b-3f47-4373-b4ba-7cc20f849525-000000/UtEg7JAQsB7py7LcEQCmEjVEVlrPkWMn7du-PIXzvp4=386>* for a copy of the draft and instructions for submitting comments. NIST will also hold a *virtual Workshop on Guidance for KEMs <https://links-1.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fcsrc.nist.gov%2FEvents%2F2025%2Fworkshop-on-guidance-for-kems/1/010001943d1c9678-b32b0c0b-3f47-4373-b4ba-7cc20f849525-000000/efGeHHKAqCdLgoQXCV_d_M8F8jg1UOGh8dDe-cvzCJs=386>* on February 25-26, 2025, to gather additional feedback on SP 800-227.
