PQCryptoGuard

"Prevention is cheaper than a breach"

Project Overview

A large enterprise with a distributed IT infrastructure lacked complete visibility into its deployed cryptographic methods, keys, and protocols. This lack of transparency created significant risks—particularly in relation to future quantum attacks and inefficient migration processes.

With PQCryptoGuard, a centralized solution was implemented that automatically discovers, analyzes, and assesses all cryptographic assets. For the first time, the organization gained full transparency across its security landscape and was able to make informed decisions for a structured and prioritized migration toward post-quantum security.

Challenges

Distributed cryptography across numerous systems, applications, and networks without centralized visibility.

Unknown or outdated cryptographic methods in legacy systems.

Lack of transparency regarding certificates, keys, and deployed libraries.

High manual effort required for the discovery and assessment of cryptographic assets.

Unclear priorities and inefficient planning in the migration to post-quantum security.

Solution & Implementation

Deployment of PQCryptoGuard for automated, agent-based discovery of all cryptographic assets across the entire infrastructure.

Continuous scanning of servers, endpoints, and applications to achieve full visibility into deployed cryptographic methods such as RSA and ECC.

Centralized analysis and assessment of network protocols (TLS, SSH, VPN), certificates, keys, and cryptographic libraries.

Automated risk assessment to identify quantum-vulnerable systems and critical vulnerabilities.

Prioritization of migration readiness for individual systems to enable efficient planning and execution of security measures.

Provision of concrete recommendations as a foundation for a structured and secure post-quantum migration.
