REALITY CHECK

Proving Your Cryptographic Readiness Is No Longer Optional

Organisations are already being asked to demonstrate cryptographic control — by customers, auditors and regulators.

The Real Risk Is Immediate

This is not about future threats. It’s about what happens when:

01
You cannot respond to an audit
02
You cannot provide a readiness plan
03
You cannot prove control

This is not a future problem. It is an operational risk — happening now.

Without a Cryptographic System of Record You Are Operating Blind

Most organisations cannot answer basic questions about their cryptographic risk — and that creates real exposure.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Cryptographic Risk, Answered

Questions security, GRC and platform teams ask when evaluating a cryptographic system of record.

What is PQCLayer (PQC Layer)?

PQCLayer — also written as PQC Layer — is the cryptographic system of record for regulated organisations. It discovers cryptographic assets across cloud, on-prem and SaaS vendors, prioritises risk by impact and exposure, and tracks remediation continuously — so security teams can prove cryptographic control to auditors, customers and regulators.

Who is PQCLayer for?

PQCLayer is built for security, GRC and platform teams at regulated organisations — financial services, insurance, critical infrastructure, enterprise SaaS and technology providers. It is designed for environments where cryptographic weakness creates real audit, contractual or operational exposure.

How does PQCLayer build a cryptographic inventory?

PQCLayer connects read-only to cloud accounts, enterprise systems and software vendor data, then maps every cryptographic asset — keys, certificates, algorithms, libraries and dependencies — into one continuously updated inventory. No agents are deployed. Assets are tagged with usage context, owner and risk signals.

How is PQCLayer different from a CSPM or vulnerability scanner?

CSPM and vulnerability scanners detect misconfigurations and CVEs. PQCLayer is purpose-built for cryptography: it inventories algorithms, key material and certificate dependencies, scores them by quantum and classical risk, and tracks remediation over time as a governance system — not a one-time scan.

What is post-quantum cryptography and why does it matter now?

Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) refers to algorithms designed to resist attacks from quantum computers. It matters now because NIST has standardised PQC algorithms (FIPS 203, 204, 205), regulators are starting to expect migration plans, and Harvest-Now-Decrypt-Later attacks already collect data today for future decryption.

What standards and frameworks does PQCLayer align with?

PQCLayer aligns with NIST FIPS 203 (ML-KEM), FIPS 204 (ML-DSA) and FIPS 205 (SLH-DSA), NIST SP 800-208 and the CNSA 2.0 transition timeline. PQCLayer itself is operated to SOC 2 Type II, FIPS 140-3 and ISO 27001 controls.

Does PQCLayer require deploying agents in our environment?

No. PQCLayer connects through read-only APIs to cloud providers, identity systems and supported enterprise systems. Initial visibility is available without installing agents, opening firewall holes or changing how applications run in production.

How long does an initial cryptographic readiness assessment take?

Most organisations get initial cryptographic exposure visibility in under a day via the free scan. A structured readiness assessment — score, recommendations and a rough migration timeline — typically completes within one to three weeks depending on environment scope and vendor coverage.
