Orchestrated cryptography
for agility and policy.
Secure communications for quantum and beyond, September 2025.
Security leaders' guide to an orchestrated approach for the quantum migration. Breaking the upgrade cycle with cryptographic controls, policy enforcement, and runtime agility.
A practical playbook for crypto-agility at enterprise scale
The white paper covers what most PQC migration plans miss: orchestration.
Most organizations approach the post-quantum migration as a bulk replacement: identify what's vulnerable, swap the algorithm. That works once. It doesn't work as a sustainable cryptographic posture. This paper presents an orchestrated alternative: discovery, policy, remediation, and reporting as a continuous loop, not a one-time project.
Inside the paper
Material drawn from real production deployments at Banco Sabadell, tier-1 telecoms, and U.S. federal agencies.
-
Cryptographic discovery
How to inventory algorithms across cloud, on-prem, edge, and air-gapped environments without disrupting production.
-
Policy-driven controls
Translating compliance mandates (NIST, FIPS, CNSA 2.0, GDPR) into enforceable runtime policy.
-
Runtime remediation
Switching algorithms in flight, without code changes, downtime, or vendor cycles.
-
Continuous compliance
On-demand Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM) and audit-ready reporting at executive and engineer levels.
-
Hybrid post-quantum
Practical guidance on hybrid-mode deployments that cover the transition window before standards stabilize.
-
Real-world deployments
Anonymized lessons from production rollouts: what works, what surprises teams, and what to avoid.
