"Cryptography is the invisible foundation of every digital interaction, but it remains one of the most vulnerable components in modern businesses. Certificates, keys, algorithms, and protocols are spread across infrastructure, networks, and applications, often without clear control. This lack of oversight makes organizations vulnerable to outages and security risks, especially as quantum computing draws nearer. The new solution is designed to help companies move from reactive crypto management to an automated, quantum-safe approach."
"The collaboration focuses on four key areas. First, automatic detection of cryptographic assets in on-premises, cloud, and DevOps environments, resulting in a complete inventory and Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM). In addition, the solution combines IBM's governance expertise with the Quantum Safe Migration Orchestrator and Keyfactor's risk insights for structured risk analysis and recovery planning. Keyfactor's EJBCA, SignServer, and Command solutions provide quantum-ready PKI and automated certificate management. Finally, IBM Consulting helps establish sustainable governance models, including cryptographic Centers of Excellence."
Keyfactor and IBM Consulting launched a joint solution to map cryptographic systems and prepare organizations for post-quantum cryptography. The solution combines Keyfactor's automation platform and quantum-ready PKI tools with IBM's governance expertise and the Quantum Safe Migration Orchestrator. The approach emphasizes automatic detection across on-premises, cloud, and DevOps to produce a Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM). The collaboration layers structured risk analysis, recovery planning, and sustainable governance models including Centers of Excellence and KPIs. The solution follows NIST, EU, and global PQC standards and provides a phased path from discovery to long-term crypto agility.
