AI-Accelerated Audit · 2.5 Weeks

We Evaluate Your
Quantum Readiness

The only assessment covering post-quantum cryptography, quantum networking protocols, and quantum optimization & ML readiness — delivered in 2.5 weeks, not 3 months. Portal access to your live dashboard.

Adversaries are already collecting encrypted data today, waiting for quantum computers capable of breaking current cryptography. Every piece of encrypted communications, stored data, and digital signature captured now is at risk of future decryption. This is not a future threat — the window to act is measured in months, not years. Organizations with data that must remain confidential beyond 2030 should begin PQC migration immediately.

How It Works

AI-accelerated methodology that delivers in 2.5 weeks what traditionally takes 3 months. NIST-aligned, tool-backed, and built for technical scrutiny.

Traditional Assessment

~13 Weeks
1

Scope & Access

Weeks 1–2: Manual scoping, stakeholder meetings, environment access setup

2

Manual Inventory

Weeks 3–5: Spreadsheet-based cryptographic inventory, manual certificate review

3

Assessment & Analysis

Weeks 6–9: Vulnerability scanning, vendor interviews, compliance gap analysis

4

Report & Review

Weeks 10–13: Manual report writing, executive review, multiple revision cycles

Q-Readiness Accelerated

~2.5 Weeks
1

AI Triage & Scoping

Days 1–3: AI-assisted intake, automated environment profiling, scope discovery

2

Automated Scanning

Days 4–7: QRAMM cryptographic discovery, PKI-scanner certificate analysis, OpenQuantumSafe protocol probing

3

Simulation & Analysis

Days 8–12: NetSquid protocol simulation, SQOUT optimization screening, AI-assisted gap analysis

4

Deliverable & Portal

Days 13–18: Automated report generation, executive risk summary, portal dashboard activation

NIST-aligned methodology. All assessments follow NIST PQC standardization and CNSA 2.0 timelines. Per NSA/NCSC guidance, PQC is evaluated as the primary cryptographic migration path. Quantum networking assessments include the full NCSC classification framework.

Quantum Timeline

Live countdown to critical PQC migration deadlines. Organizations that begin today gain a 12–18 month advantage in vendor negotiations and regulatory positioning.

CNSA 2.0 Compliance

All national security systems fully migrated to PQC-approved algorithms. Current PKI infrastructure considered broken by this point. Harvested data at risk.

The nearest deadline is June 1, 2027. Begin your assessment now — 2.5 weeks is all it takes.

Quantum Intelligence

Curated updates on PQC standards, regulatory timelines, and quantum technology milestones. Structured intelligence for decision-makers.

NIST
May 2026

NIST Finalizes First PQC Standards

ML-KEM (FIPS 203), ML-DSA (FIPS 204), and SLH-DSA (FIPS 205) finalized for immediate adoption. NIST states these "can and should be put into use now."

Organizations should begin cryptographic inventory and migration planning immediately. The standards cover key establishment and digital signatures — the foundation of enterprise PKI, TLS, and code-signing infrastructure.

NSA Reaffirms PQC as Primary Quantum Mitigation

CNSA 2.0 timelines established for national security systems. NSA does not recommend QKD for National Security Systems due to hardware and integration limitations.

Updated guidance reinforces PQC as the cost-effective, maintainable path. CNSA 2.0 mandates set clear deadlines through 2033 for all government and defense systems. Commercial equivalents expected across Five Eyes partners.

Enterprise PQC Hiring Surges Across Security Industry

Booz Allen, Palo Alto Networks, and other major vendors post dedicated PQC roles as cryptographic inventory becomes a formal product category with dedicated budget.

Roles span cryptographic inventory, migration architecture, PKI/TLS readiness, vendor assessment, and executive risk reporting. This signals real budget allocation — not exploratory research — across regulated sectors.

NCSC Publishes Quantum Networking Classification Guide

Three-class framework helps enterprises evaluate when quantum networking is relevant vs. premature, covering QKD, networked sensors, and entanglement distribution.

The guide divides quantum networking into three classes: replacing classical security (QKD), extending networks with quantum components, and inherently quantum networks. Helps buyers avoid over-investing before technology matures for their use case.
