How does Quantumize help organizations transition to post-quantum cryptography?
Quantumize delivers post-quantum readiness through three connected stages: cryptographic discovery that maps every algorithm across networks, codebases, certificates, and supply chains; risk-scored prioritization that ranks findings by data sensitivity and system criticality; and migration planning that produces a phased, executable roadmap aligned with NIST, CISA, and NSA guidance. All recommendations are grounded in NIST FIPS 203, 204, and 205 the finalized post-quantum cryptography standards published in August 2024.
Stage One: Cryptographic Discovery and Inventory
The foundation of any PQC migration is a complete picture of what cryptographic algorithms an organization uses and where. Quantumize's cryptographic discovery engagement systematically identifies every classical algorithm across network protocols, application code, third-party libraries, X.509 certificates, firmware, APIs, and supply chain dependencies. The output is a Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM) a structured inventory of every cryptographic asset, its location, its role, and its exposure to cryptographic risk. Without a complete CBOM, migration planning is guesswork rather than a governed, risk-based program.
Stage Two: Risk Prioritization by Sensitivity and Criticality
Not all cryptographic exposure carries equal risk. Systems protecting data with long required confidentiality lifetimes medical records, financial archives, government communications face the highest harvest-now exposure. Systems in critical infrastructure or regulated environments carry additional compliance urgency from frameworks such as NSA CNSA 2.0 and OMB M-23-02. Quantumize scores each finding by data sensitivity, confidentiality lifetime, system criticality, and regulatory context, producing a prioritized migration order that directs resources where they reduce the most risk rather than where migration is operationally easiest.
Stage Three: Migration Planning and Roadmap Development
A risk-prioritized CBOM becomes the input to a phased migration roadmap. Each phase defines what to migrate, by what method, using which NIST-standardized algorithm, in what sequence, and against what timeline. Roadmaps are designed around hybrid cryptography running classical and post-quantum algorithms together during the transition period so neither must be trusted alone. Crypto-agility architecture is embedded throughout, ensuring that future algorithm updates require configuration changes rather than application re-engineering across an organization's entire technology estate.
A standards-grounded path to protect your most valuable data
Deploy in Hours, Not Months
Quantumize is a production-ready SaaS platform, not a consulting engagement. SAML/OIDC SSO, REST API, Node.js SDK, and CLI mean your team is encrypting files and signing documents with NIST-standardized algorithms the same day you sign up without ripping out your existing infrastructure.
9 Algorithms. One Platform.
Quantumize implements all three NIST-finalized FIPS standards (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA) plus FALCON (FN-DSA) and five NIST Round 4 candidates (Classic McEliece, NTRU, SABER, FrodoKEM, HQC). Hybrid Classical+PQC modes run both simultaneously both must be broken for any compromise to succeed.
Stop the Harvest Now, Decrypt Later Clock
Every day your sensitive data travels over classically encrypted channels, adversaries can intercept and archive it for future quantum decryption. Quantumize migrates your highest-risk data first long-lived records, financial archives, health data, government communications reducing retroactive exposure immediately.
Multi-Cloud Key Management
Integrate with AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, and GCP Cloud KMS all with post-quantum TLS to the key management service. Envelope encryption with hardware-backed key wrapping, dry-run and live KMS key migration tooling, and WORM-compliant compliance evidence export via S3 Object Lock.
Crypto-Agile by Architecture
NIST standards will evolve. New vulnerabilities may emerge. Quantumize's architecture isolates cryptographic primitives so algorithm updates are configuration changes, not re-engineering projects. Build for today's standards; adapt to tomorrow's without starting over.
Enterprise-Grade Security Posture
AWS WAF + CloudFront CDN, AWS Inspector continuous vulnerability scanning, MFA enforcement on every cryptographic operation, Role-Based Access Control (Admin / Crypto Officer / User), tamper-evident Cryptographic Audit Trail, and SOC 2 Type II audit in progress. Available on AWS Marketplace for enterprise procurement.
The NIST-standardized building blocks
The post-quantum standards your migration is built around by role and trade-off, not hype.
Key Establishment (ML-KEM)
ML-KEM (FIPS 203) is the primary NIST-standardized key encapsulation mechanism, based on the hardness of Module Learning With Errors lattice problems. It is designed for deployment in hybrid mode alongside classical key exchange, providing quantum resistance without discarding existing protections.
Lattice-Based Signatures (ML-DSA)
ML-DSA (FIPS 204) is the primary NIST-standardized digital signature standard. Built on structured-lattice hardness assumptions, it supports code signing, certificate issuance, and general-purpose authentication at multiple security levels with strong performance characteristics.
Hash-Based Signatures (SLH-DSA)
SLH-DSA (FIPS 205) is a backup signature standard built on hash functions rather than lattices. Its security reduces to the strength of the underlying hash function alone, making it a conservative choice for long-term roots of trust, firmware signing, and scenarios where algorithm diversity is valued.
Backup Key Encapsulation (HQC)
HQC is a code-based KEM that NIST selected as a backup to ML-KEM, providing mathematical diversity in case lattice-based assumptions are later weakened. Including a code-based alternative in your architecture is a hedge against a single family being compromised.
From discovery to executable roadmap
Four connected stages discover, prioritize, roadmap, and plan execution that turn a complex transition into a clear, low-disruption sequence.
Stage 1–2: Cryptographic Discovery & Inventory
Find every key, certificate, library, protocol, firmware module, and API endpoint using classically-vulnerable cryptography across your entire infrastructure. Organize findings into a structured record covering algorithm type, key size, system owner, data classification, and regulatory scope.
Stage 3–4: CBOM Generation & Exposure Assessment
Produce a machine-readable Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM) the authoritative inventory that drives all planning. Evaluate each cryptographic asset's exposure to quantum-enabled attack and Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL) risk using NIST FIPS 203/204/205 as the migration target baseline.
Stage 5–6: Risk Scoring & Migration Prioritization
Score every cryptographic asset by data sensitivity, required confidentiality lifetime, system criticality, and regulatory context (NSA CNSA 2.0, OMB M-23-02, HIPAA, FFIEC). Highest-risk assets long-lived archives, root certificates, API authentication migrate first.
Stage 6: Hybrid Transition Zero Downtime
Run classical and post-quantum algorithms in parallel using hybrid mode. Both mechanisms must be broken simultaneously to compromise any session. Your existing systems continue operating throughout migration no rip-and-replace, no planned outages.
Stage 7: Key Re-Wrapping & Asset Migration
Re-encrypt existing stored data and re-wrap KMS keys under post-quantum algorithms using Quantumize's key migration tooling (dry-run + live). Cryptographic Recovery Packages (CRP) ensure every re-wrapped asset remains permanently recoverable even if a key is later lost.
Stage 8–9: Compliance Evidence & Ongoing Crypto-Agility
Generate WORM-locked compliance audit exports via S3 Object Lock tamper-evident evidence of your migration progress for regulators, auditors, and enterprise customers. Build crypto-agile architecture so future NIST algorithm updates require configuration changes, not re-engineering.
Cryptographic Readiness Methodology
Quantumize follows a nine-stage cryptographic readiness lifecycle. This is Quantumize's proprietary methodology, not an official NIST or government framework. Where the methodology incorporates NIST, NSA, and CISA guidance, those standards are clearly attributed.
Discover
Systematically identify every cryptographic algorithm in use across networks, application code, third-party libraries, X.509 certificates, firmware, APIs, and supply chain dependencies.
Inventory
Organize discovered cryptographic assets into a structured record with algorithm type, key size, protocol context, system owner, data classification, and regulatory scope.
Generate CBOM
Produce a Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM): a machine-readable inventory of every cryptographic dependency that becomes the authoritative input to all subsequent planning activities.
Assess Exposure
Evaluate each cryptographic asset's exposure to quantum-enabled attack, harvest-now-decrypt-later risk, and classical cryptographic weakness.
Score Risk
Apply a consistent risk scoring model combining data sensitivity, required confidentiality lifetime, system criticality, and regulatory context (NSA CNSA 2.0, OMB M-23-02).
Prioritize
Rank all cryptographic assets by migration urgency so engineering resources address the highest-exposure systems first, not the easiest to migrate.
Plan Migration
Develop a phased, executable roadmap specifying which NIST-standardized algorithm to adopt, whether to deploy in hybrid mode alongside classical cryptography, migration sequence, and timeline.
Validate Readiness
Verify that migrated systems correctly implement NIST-standardized post-quantum algorithms and that the updated CBOM accurately reflects the post-migration cryptographic estate.
Continuously Govern
Establish ongoing cryptographic governance: periodic CBOM refresh, monitoring for new vulnerabilities, tracking regulatory updates, and maintaining crypto-agility for future algorithm transitions.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a cryptographic discovery engagement cover?
A cryptographic discovery engagement produces a structured inventory of every place quantum-vulnerable cryptography is used across your environment: network protocols, application libraries, firmware, PKI certificates, APIs, cloud services, and third-party dependencies. The output is a Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM) that maps algorithm, protocol, system owner, and data classification for each finding.
How do you determine which systems to migrate first?
Prioritization is based on the intersection of data sensitivity and confidentiality lifetime. Systems protecting data that must remain confidential for years or decades carry the highest harvest-now-decrypt-later risk and are addressed first. Secondary factors include system criticality, upgrade complexity, vendor roadmap readiness, and regulatory context.
Does Quantumize perform implementation work, or just the planning?
Our engagements cover discovery, risk prioritization, algorithm selection, hybrid deployment design, and roadmap development the planning and advisory layer. We work alongside your existing security and engineering teams. Implementation sequencing and vendor coordination are in scope; direct code changes are executed by your development team with our guidance.
How long does a post-quantum readiness engagement take?
An initial cryptographic discovery and risk assessment for a mid-size enterprise typically takes six to twelve weeks, depending on environment complexity and documentation availability. A full migration roadmap follows the assessment. Complete migration across a large enterprise is a multi-year program, which is why beginning the inventory early matters.
