QuantumReady ConsultingAustralian Post-Quantum Cryptography Readiness

Services

Our post-quantum cryptography consulting services focus on discovery, analysis, prioritisation and transition planning. We help organisations understand where cryptography is used, assess exposure to quantum computing threats and define a practical roadmap to quantum-safe encryption aligned to Australian guidance and global standards.

Discovery and cryptographic inventory service icon

Discovery and cryptographic inventory

Identify where traditional asymmetric cryptography is used across applications, APIs, certificates, signing flows, cloud platforms and third-party services.

  • Current-state cryptographic inventory across key systems and services
  • Initial dependency map covering applications, APIs, certificates and vendors
  • Visibility into externally exposed and business-critical cryptographic touchpoints
  • Documented view of likely blind spots requiring deeper discovery
  • Foundation dataset for risk analysis and transition planning

Approximate duration: 4 to 8 weeks, depending on organisation size and complexity.

Quantum risk assessment and exposure analysis service icon

Risk assessment and exposure analysis

Assess data sensitivity, long-life confidentiality risk, business criticality, external exposure and the likely impact of delayed transition.

  • Initial risk profile by platform, application and data type
  • Identification of long-life sensitive data at highest future exposure
  • View of operational, regulatory and reputational consequences
  • Early understanding of harvest now, decrypt later exposure
  • Management-ready summary of priority risk themes

Approximate duration: 3 to 6 weeks, depending on organisation size and complexity.

Roadmap and prioritisation service icon

Roadmap and prioritisation

Create a sequenced plan based on system importance, change complexity, lifecycle constraints, vendor dependencies and organisational risk tolerance.

  • Prioritised candidate list for remediation and deeper design
  • High-level transition sequence across near, medium and longer term
  • Indicative dependency-based delivery phasing
  • Clear rationale for what should move first and why
  • Board and leadership-friendly roadmap for investment decisions

Approximate duration: 2 to 4 weeks, depending on organisation size and complexity.

PQC transition and crypto agility consulting icon

PQC transition and crypto agility

Support architecture and planning decisions that improve crypto agility and prepare systems for the adoption of post-quantum standards.

  • Crypto-agility design principles for future change
  • Transition options for applications, APIs, certificates and integrations
  • Architecture guidance for introducing new approved algorithms safely
  • Testing and rollback considerations for staged implementation
  • Practical view of where vendor engagement or platform change is needed

Approximate duration: 4 to 10 weeks, depending on organisation size and complexity.

Monitoring and governance service icon

Monitoring and governance

Track standards updates, vendor readiness, implementation progress and ongoing risk once the transition is underway.

  • Governance checkpoints for milestones, dependencies and decisions
  • Tracking model for standards, vendor readiness and residual risk
  • Simple reporting view for leadership and steering forums
  • Mechanism to keep inventory and roadmap current over time
  • Ongoing alignment with Australian regulatory and security guidance

Approximate duration: 2 to 6 weeks to establish, depending on organisation size and complexity.

Executive and stakeholder education service icon

Executive and stakeholder education

Provide a structured understanding of quantum risk, business drivers, critical milestones and realistic transition expectations across leadership and delivery teams.

  • Leadership briefing tailored to the Australian enterprise context
  • Common language across cyber, architecture, engineering and risk teams
  • Improved awareness of timelines, dependencies and constraints
  • Working understanding of what post-quantum transition actually involves
  • Better organisational readiness to sponsor, sequence and govern change

Approximate duration: 1 to 2 weeks, depending on organisation size and complexity.
