PQC Navigator

A structured readiness assessment for organizations that want a clearer view of current status, key gaps, and practical next steps for post-quantum cryptography.

PQC Navigator is designed for organizations that want to move beyond general awareness and develop a more decision-useful view of exposure, dependencies, planning maturity, and management priorities.

It is particularly relevant for financial institutions and other regulated organizations where long-lived confidentiality, digital trust, governance, and transition readiness already matter today.

PQC Mobilization and PQC Navigator offering structure

The offering is structured in two steps. PQC Mobilization helps build initial awareness and stakeholder alignment. PQC Navigator includes that mobilization step and then assesses current planning status, key gaps, and practical management options against a baseline PQC planning flow.

PQC Mobilization

A focused entry step to build awareness, align key stakeholders, and create an informed basis for next-step decisions.

Best suited for organizations that first need a practical, workshop-based introduction to PQC risk, management relevance, likely exposure areas, and cross-functional alignment.

What PQC Navigator provides

Core focus

  • current readiness and planning maturity assessment
  • visibility on cryptographic exposure and dependencies
  • connection between information assets and cryptographic risk
  • identification of key gaps, action areas, and decision points
  • structured basis for strengthening and tailoring the planning approach

Typical client value

  • clearer management view of readiness, gaps, and exposure
  • better alignment across business, risk, legal, and technology
  • stronger basis for prioritization and next-step decisions
  • more credible starting point for follow-on planning and implementation

Typical stakeholders

  • management and sponsor stakeholders
  • risk and security functions
  • legal and compliance representatives
  • business and information owners
  • IT, architecture, and vendor-related teams

Typical outputs

  • structured management summary
  • readiness view across key assessment dimensions
  • prioritized gaps and action areas
  • practical management options for how to strengthen or start the approach

Why start now

PQC readiness is not only about a future migration. It is also about current governance, dependency visibility, stakeholder alignment, planning readiness, and the ability to respond before pressure and urgency increase.

Organizations that start early are better positioned to identify relevant exposure, create internal alignment, and prepare a more credible path forward.

Start the discussion

A short discussion is often the best first step. Depending on your situation, that may lead into a focused PQC Mobilization or directly into a broader PQC Navigator assessment.
