Discovery and inventory of all your cryptographic assets addresses today's vulnerabilities and prepares for quantum threats.
Cryptographic Inventory is your critical first step to reduce risk today and prepare for tomorrow.
Your encryption is everywhere and hidden. Without visibility, you cannot reduce risk, ensure compliance, or prepare for quantum. The question is how quickly you can start.
Your organization faces financial risk
Cryptographic vulnerabilities increase financial exposure through operational disruptions, regulatory fines, and fraud losses. A Cryptographic Inventory quantifies exposure and prioritizes risk reduction for stakeholders and regulators.
Hidden encryption creates blind spots
Keys, certificates, and algorithms may not be visible across your systems, cloud services, and devices. These blind spots leave you vulnerable to breaches, compliance failures, and service disruptions. A Cryptographic Inventory reveals what you cannot see.
Regulators demand cryptographic visibility and governance
The United States National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) identifies Cryptographic Inventory as the critical first step for quantum preparation. Compliance starts with knowing what you have.
Build competitive advantage through trust
Privacy protection creates business opportunities. A Cryptographic Inventory positions you to accelerate partnerships with confidence and differentiate through privacy assurance. This builds lasting customer trust and loyalty.
Without knowing what encryption you have, you cannot protect it. A Cryptographic Inventory reveals every key, certificate, and algorithm across your organization. It shows exactly what you have, where it is, and what needs protection. It's a living map that updates as your infrastructure evolves.
Know what you have and what to fix
Your inventory shows what you have, where it is, and what's vulnerable. This enables you to prioritize fixes, meet compliance, and prepare for quantum threats.
Dynamic asset that evolves with your business
Your inventory updates continuously as infrastructure evolves. It tracks new systems and removed assets automatically. This dynamic nature ensures your inventory remains accurate and relevant.
Creating a comprehensive Cryptographic Inventory is complex and multifaceted. Understanding these challenges upfront helps you plan resources, set expectations, and develop strategies for success.
Traditional security tools fall short
Traditional security tools focus on finding diverse vulnerabilities, not building a Cryptographic Inventory. Building a Cryptographic Inventory requires technologies that gather, analyze, and centralize encryption data.
Encryption hides across enterprise environments
Encryption and security systems hide across systems, cloud services, and legacy infrastructure. Building an inventory requires connecting to diverse systems using specialized approaches.
Third-party dependencies limit visibility
Many systems are outside your control. Third-party reliance results in limited visibility over cryptographic assets. You must address supplier cryptography through procurement processes and shared responsibility models.
Scale and constant change
IT environments constantly evolve with new deployments, updates, and configurations. Large environments require automation to keep inventories current. Manual processes cannot keep pace.
Deep expertise required
Larger, diverse infrastructures require more expertise to understand where to look and access systems. Experts validate output, determine what is active versus old configurations, and identify blind spots in automated discovery.
Every sector depends on cryptography differently. Whether you're protecting financial data, securing critical systems, or meeting regulatory requirements, Cryptographic Inventory provides the visibility you need.
A cryptographic inventory is essential for governance because it provides the visibility needed to manage cryptographic assets, including keys, algorithms, and protocols, across an organization's IT landscape. This inventory is crucial for meeting compliance requirements, mitigating security risks from outdated or weak cryptography, and preparing for future threats like post-quantum computing. Ultimately, it serves as a foundation for building a robust, agile, and resilient cryptographic strategy.
The US Government mandates federal agencies build cryptographic inventories for quantum safety Regulators recommend the same. A Cryptographic Inventory gives you the visibility to demonstrate compliance and prepare for post-quantum cryptography.
Not all cryptographic assets carry equal risk, and quantum-safe transition is a multi-year journey requiring strategic choices. A Cryptographic Inventory maps vulnerabilities to business risks and identifies quantum-exposed systems for prioritization. Invest your resources where they matter most for immediate security and quantum readiness.
You cannot assess quantum risk without knowing what cryptography you have. A Cryptographic Inventory identifies quantum-vulnerable systems and reveals where Harvest Now Decrypt Later (HNDL) attacks threaten data. This lets you prioritize quantum protection based on data sensitivity rather than guessing.
Quantum-safe transition is a multi-year program requiring both systematic planning and operational flexibility. A Cryptographic Inventory shows which systems can adopt Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), which have limitations, and where dependencies exist. This visibility enables you to scope the effort, budget accurately, and execute phased migration.
Standards evolve, the same inventory gives you the flexibility to change encryption algorithms rapidly across systems without operational disruption. This agility ensures you can adapt to new threats and requirements as they emerge.
New cryptographic vulnerabilities emerge continuously, but you need to know where they exist in your environment. A Cryptographic Inventory automatically identifies cryptographic weaknesses and feeds this intelligence into your existing vulnerability management platforms.
Your cryptographic security depends on your suppliers' implementations. A Cryptographic Inventory tracks which vendor systems and third-party applications use weak or outdated encryption. This gives your procurement and risk teams visibility into how suppliers actually secure their systems. This extends security across your digital ecosystem, ensuring vendor weaknesses don't become your vulnerabilities.

As you evaluate solutions, you might encounter "Cryptographic Bill of Materials" (CBOM). CBOMs list what cryptography is built into software. Cryptographic Inventory shows what you actually use in production and how it's configured across your entire infrastructure.
