Cryptographic Inventory: Deriving Value Today, Preparing for Tomorrow

The strategic principle of establishing a cryptographic inventory is key to addressing today’s vulnerabilities and preparing for a post-quantum world.

Modern digital systems still rely on cryptography designed decades ago—creating hidden vulnerabilities, operational risk, and growing exposure as quantum computing approaches. This white paper breaks down why a cryptographic inventory is now an essential first step for reducing risk today and preparing for tomorrow.

Key insights include how to:

  • Identify hidden cryptographic risks with full visibility into keys, certificates, algorithms, and configurations across complex environments.
  • Strengthen security & compliance by uncovering weaknesses, outdated encryption, and unmanaged assets before they create business or regulatory impact.
  • Accelerate quantum-safe readiness by understanding which assets are most vulnerable to future CRQC and “store-now-decrypt-later” threats.
  • Build a scalable program using ten strategic principles—automation, prioritization, actionable insights, supplier visibility, and a trusted golden source.
