What happened
This collection of Google security blog posts describes multiple platform- and ecosystem-level security initiatives and mitigations: Chrome is preparing for post-quantum TLS by not immediately adding traditional PQ X.509 certs to the Chrome Root Store and instead helping develop Merkle Tree Certificates (MTCs) via the IETF PLANTS working group to address performance/CT scaling for quantum-resistant cryptography. The Chrome Root Program and CAB Forum ballots (SC-080/SC-090/SC-091) will phase out 11 legacy Domain Control Validation (DCV) methods (full security value by March 2028) to remove weak
