Through Cryptographic Visibility, Governance, and Transition Planning
Quantum computing represents a structural shift in cyber risk, with direct implications for encryption, identity, data protection, and regulatory compliance.
Organizations that rely on public-key cryptography and long-lived data face exposure today, not at some distant future milestone. Adversaries are already planning for this shift. Quantum readiness ensures your organization understands where cryptography is used, which assets are at risk, and how to transition deliberately—without disruption or reactive scrambles.

Quantum Readiness & Post-Quantum Cryptography
Why Organizations Must Prepare Now
The U.S. National Security Agency has made its position clear: “All organizations should begin planning for Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) now.”
U.S. government guidance, aligned with NSA recommendations, emphasizes the need for early cryptographic inventory and migration planning to address post-quantum risk, as outlined by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency in Quantum-Readiness: Migration to Post-Quantum Cryptography.
This guidance is not a future-state speculation. It is current, active direction for every sector—including higher education, government, healthcare, financial services, and beyond.
Quantum threats do not begin when large-scale quantum computers arrive. They begin when sensitive data is collected, stored, and encrypted using algorithms that may not remain secure for the lifespan of that data.
Adversaries are already pursuing “harvest now, decrypt later” strategies, targeting data with long-term value such as:
Identity records
Research and intellectual property
Financial and contractual data
Regulated or protected information
If cryptographic dependencies are unknown or unmanaged, organizations lose control over when, how, and at what cost they must transition.
What Quantum Readiness Actually Involves
Quantum readiness is a risk management discipline, not a rushed technology upgrade. It focuses on building the visibility and governance required to adapt safely as standards evolve.
Cryptographic Visibility
Understanding where encryption, keys, certificates, algorithms, and trust relationships exist across applications, infrastructure, vendors, and data flows.
Risk-Based Prioritization
Identifying which cryptographic dependencies protect long-lived or high-impact data and aligning remediation efforts with business and regulatory risk.
Cryptographic Agility
Designing systems, architectures, and governance models so cryptographic components can be updated or replaced without breaking operations.
This foundation allows organizations to transition on their timeline, not under pressure.
Where Organizations Are Most Vulnerable
Most organizations struggle with quantum readiness not because of quantum computing—but because cryptography has historically been invisible.
Common gaps include:
No centralized inventory of cryptographic assets
Hard-coded or legacy algorithms embedded in applications
Limited insight into third-party and SaaS cryptographic dependencies
No ownership or governance model for cryptographic change
Over-reliance on vendors to manage future transitions
These gaps turn post-quantum migration into a reactive, high-risk event instead of a controlled transformation.
Our Quantum Readiness Approach
Practical, Risk-Led, and Governance-Driven
CyberLogix GRC approaches quantum readiness as part of cyber resilience and enterprise risk management, not as an isolated technology exercise.
Our work typically includes:
Cryptographic discovery and dependency mapping
Risk classification of cryptographic use cases
Alignment with enterprise risk, compliance, and resilience objectives
Post-quantum transition roadmaps
Cryptographic governance and policy support
Executive-level risk communication and decision support
The result is clarity, control, and confidence—without operational disruption.
Prepare Today For Tomorrow’s Cryptographic Reality
Quantum readiness is a multi-year journey. Organizations that begin early reduce risk, avoid rushed transitions, and maintain trust as cryptographic standards evolve.
CyberLogix GRC aligns quantum readiness planning with emerging federal guidance to support defensible, long-term risk decisions—without introducing operational disruption.
Let’s assess your cryptographic exposure and build a roadmap aligned to resilience, governance, and long-term risk.
